Lea~your videos inspire me to grab a cup of tea and spend time with the Lord (in silence/listening, praying, reading/meditating on scripture. They also motivate me to get up and tackle a task that needs getting to. With recently overcoming cancer and Covid, my energy is a bit challenged. Your videos give me the get-up I need. Thank you. A big hug to Obie and Zion. I have three furry kids. Grateful for God's wee creatures. Appreciate the time you must take to put out such peaceful and beautiful content. Bless you and James.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Well, praise God for the healing your are walking into. I am sorry for the struggles you have had to endure in recent days, but I am blessed to know this content has been some encouragement to you. Big hug.

[@anaqp4222]

I love how you refresh in the morning for your husband! You’ve inspired me to treat my husband with more love and respect!

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Of all the research I've done on this, men equate little things like us keeping up our appearance or smiling often and giving them extra physical attention as love. Touching their arm, complimenting them. They are simple in that way. Action is love to them. So many women would experience so much more love from their husbands if they inspired their hearts with those little things. It then becomes a cycle of love and effort from both sides. 💕💜 thank you so much for watching.

A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband, but one causing shame is like rottenness in his bones. Prov. 12:4

Who can find a virtuous woman? For she is worth far more than rubies. Prov 31:10

This is how my hubby and I have been living, at least trying our best :) : sloowwwwwww, peaceful, joyful, and most of all, reverent to The Most High. You brought tears to my eyes when you said "you are so loved" - you spoke to me, you spoke to us. Peace be with you.

Thank you for sharing your day and this video with the world. I love your videos. I try to have the same kind of slow, peaceful, and introspective life. At 68 years of age I have learned that the peace and quiet of a contemplative life is the one for me.

I appreciate that your life is all about home making, and honoring God, and everything you do in a godly way. LOL, I saw you were drinking tea, so I paused the video and made a cup of dandelion tea also and watched the rest of your beautifully choreographed video. Many Blessings to you and your husband.

LOVE that you've shown what you're using in this video! With people minimalizing the "stuff" in their lives, it would be nice to see a VLOG of your essentials. Materialism has been a huge burden for me but now, reducing that burden has been a huge blessing. My next essential - oil lamps! Thank you, Lea.

Don't you love when the fur babies get involved in the chores. Our cats do the same thing when I go to make our bed. This time last week we was having negative temperatures. Today it's in the 50s and the wind is blowing just right for hanging laundry out. The book of Psalm is my favorite book in the Bible. Take care and have a blessed new year ✨️

This was so beautiful and I really liked the music choice as well. I have been loving your video creations lately! I was wondering-I have noticed that you’re not wearing a head covering as much in your videos over the last few months. Have your beliefs/convictions changed on this? Of course I do realize that these are only little snippets of life and it just might be that you do and it wasn’t filmed. I’ve recently started covering so I am always interested in this. NOT to criticize, just something I noticed and wondered about. ❤

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

The parts of my life where I cover during Bible reading, prayer, and church are just times I don't show on camera. I used to cover a lot more during the day because of personal convictions the Lord was walking me through to increase my obedience and bring me to much needed deliverance from a variety of things.

[@bunny_0288]

Beautiful video as always! I could really use some prayer if anyone would like to. After over 11 years of inferility, I very unexpectedly got pregnant in August. I had a very early miscarriage in September, and it has been devastating and so so hard. I started having intense anxiety and panic attacks afterwards. Fortunately, it seems to be getting better, but I'm really wrestling with trusting God through this. My head knows the truth, but gosh it's hard to fully believe it in my heart sometimes when I'm just hurting. And I don't understand why this happened. I had made peace with my infertility. I knew that it was always a possibility because our God is a God of miracles, but I also knew that it may just not be His will. But I don't quite know what to do with this. I don't understand why it happened or what I'm supposed to learn from this. I'm just so sad and I miss my baby every day. This just stirred up so many old feelings and dreams that I had made peace with and had accepted would most likely never happen without a miracle. And a miracle occurred only to end so quickly. I'm sorry to ramble on. I could just really use some prayer. I'm ashamed to admit that I'm struggling to trust the Lord through this. I know I should, but it is so hard to do right now. So please ask God to help me to trust Him. Please ask Him to be patient with me and to teach me and help me through this season. And I would love to pray for you, too. So if you need prayer for anything, please reply to this comment with your own prayer request. I would love to pray for you, too. 🥰

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Your prayer request was heard by me sister. I am so sorry for the grief you are enduring. I know the Lord will reveal His heart in this to you over time. For now, may you find comfort in His grace. Again, I am truly sorry. Sending big hugs to you. 💕 hang in there.

[@bunny_0288]

@@LittleHouseOnTheMountain Thank you so much. Your videos have brought so much comfort to me in this time. They are so peaceful and calming and have really helped me when the anxiety was really overwhelming. Thank you for your prayers and for being a beautiful light here. I pray for you and your husband often, and I am truly thankful for all that you do

[@tracy6144]

I don’t think you should be embarrassed about not trusting God right now. That is honest. Difficult things happen and we may never know why this side of heaven. We live in a fallen, broken world with broken bodies. The Lord loves you and is by your side through this pain. The lord is near to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18

[@bunny_0288]

@@tracy6144 Awww thank you so much. I think it feels embarrassing because I know better. I've been through impossibly hard times in my life, and God has gotten me through them all. So I feel a little ashamed of myself for having these doubts and struggling with trusting the Lord. Because I know better. God has walked with me through the darkest times in my life and carried me through them. I know the truth. I'm just thankful that God is patient with us. I'm reminded of His patience with Gideon and Gideon's doubts and triple checking that it really was God night after night. Of His patience with Abraham when Abraham was trying to save the city of Sodom and Gomorrah and trying to bargain with the Lord. So I just pray that He has patience with me, too. And thank you for sharing that verse with me. It is one of my favorites. When life is hard, I sometimes say it over and over and over. I'm so thankful for that promise.
