Weariness in Everyday Homemaking I Christian Homemaker Day in The Life

[@paultarrynhensler6470]

Thank you for these videos Kelsey, as a Mum of 7, this channel has helped me to grow as a homemaker and child of God. You continue to inspire me and I am so grateful. 🌻

Thank the Lord for using you as a vessel to encourage people like me. This message is what I needed to hear, not only hear but learn how to apply it to my daily life. God bless you and your beautiful family.

Adding a touch of simple beauty to your day can be so uplifting ,whether it be something from nature brought inside, a good smelling candle, or a bright ,clean kitchen hand towel. Little gifts from God that we already own can be so inspiring…. Little touches of creative beauty encourage us and our families .

Hi! I've been watching for since Oct. This one is a favorite! First I wanted to say, that i fought God w my whole being on staying home. We couldn't have kids, but medical issues have made impossible to work. I felt I was wasting my time and energy not using the gifts God gave me. Over several months of sitting w God and his word I finally surrendered. It's changed my life. My marraige has a renewed focus and beauty. My priorities are heaven focused and servant focused. But the most shocking thing for me, was when I realized, that he gave me these gifts for this calling! I believe that now. I'm still practicing, but I feel completely fulfilled. 2 other quick notes. One of the things I value about your pod cats is your calm voice. Your were talking today about inviting your kids to take part in what you are doing and teaching them real skills. So awesome!! But also, I noticed your older daughter speaks calmly too! What treasure you are giving your kids, they are emulating! Just wanted to encourage you! I know how weary we all get at times. I'm encouraged by you! C

Thank you for all the kind words. What a beautiful testimony! Staying home has made wonders for my marriage too. You are very inspiring to me, and I need to practice keeping my priorities heaven focused. This is very encouraging to me 🥰. I love how God turned something hard into something beautiful.

@@faithfulacresfarmhouse amen! I'm so glad. Thank you!!

[@carriewallick7725]

Love your videos! I am a working mom (band director) and had all but given up on taking initiative to care for my husband, home and 3 girls. Your videos have helped me see the joy that completing these tasks can bring. Praying for you and your journey!

Thank you for the beautiful reminder, I've been dealing with discouragement and burnout as a homeschooling mom of 5. I needed to hear this. May God bless you and your lovely family ❤️🙏

You may never know how you have changed my perspective of homemaking. I was doing everything grudgingly 😢😢 dragging my days in sadness but now,,, now I know better. May the Lord bless you abundantly. Watching from Kenya East Africa

Muchísimas gracias Kelsey por esto que compartis con nosotros! Nuestro amado Señor nos habla en Su Palabra y también a través de tus videos ❤. Estoy pidiéndole al Espíritu Santo y a María Santísima que me guíen en el cuidado del hogar y la familia. Estoy descubriendo el tesoro que hay en cada pequeña cosa cotidiana vivida con amor y todo lo que compartes es un gran testimonio de esos valores. Un saludo en Cristo y nuevamente gracias.

Sis, that sandwich looks DEELISH!! 🥪 I'm so glad I've come across your channel. Thank you for your encouraging words and giving us another way to look at life. I'm a single Mom of 5, and things aren't always easy. These videos have been a reminder for me of what my focus should be. Thank you for sharing ❤️

[@Julianne.Rogers]

You’re so stunning, reminds me of a princess!! I’ve really enjoyed your videos, I’m a new wife who struggles a lot with illness but your videos are very encouraging! ❤

[@faithfulacresfarmhouse]

Thank you, that is so kind! I'm so sorry 😞 I will be praying for you. Congratulations on becoming a new wife! 🥰

[@maureenLewis-m6k]

Enjoy your children now when they are young.

[@faithfulacresfarmhouse]

I am trying! Some moments are hard but I'm not really for teens or for them to be gone!

Do you recall where you got the little wooden triangle toy that sits on the floor with kids toys hanging from it? I love that.

Thank you Kelsey. God bless you and your family

Most people I know LOVE to do things with their kids and grandkids. I am 62. Children are never an inconvenience ! Are you seeing this in mass media or from people you witness in the world? I am disturbed by this idea, I don't see it around me personally....children are so rare now. I wonder if we had more public places outside for families to gather if it would make a difference in perception? I am not in a rural area, but not in a big city.

[@renewal_of_the_heart]

I wish I could live the next door and befriend you offline 😊 Thank you for another great video!

[@faithfulacresfarmhouse]

When you move to Wisconsin, let me know! 🙃

[@Anne914]

Yes my kids change multiple times I’m a day mama of 8 here 💖🙏🏼

[@faithfulacresfarmhouse]

😆 Okay so you feel me x2! 🫣🤪

[@pattyhansen7563]

I've got a 20 yo daughter living at home & it doesn't get any better with time 🤣 but at least now SHE is in charge of her own laundry LOL. She always changed multiple times a day & usually into something wholly inappropriate for the climate or time of day. sweaters & rainboots on a 100 degree august bedtime....shorts & a bathing suit in February in Upstate NY. We spent a lot of time 'arguing' over clothing choice. Finally I realized that if I didn't want her putting on shorts in Feb., maybe I should be smart & pack them out of sight, out of mind.

Beautiful ❤

[@mollydeckman]

Your property is absolutely beautiful and peaceful looking ❤ I love that “give them an invitation“ to your kids if you are feeling that irritated feeling. Powerful words right there. I need to practice that. I get frustrated when I’m working and have to stop for my kids several times a day. I feel guilty both ways for working and for taking care of the kids. And I keep telling myself that my kids really are the most important. 😊 My daughter actually prefers not to wear clothes a lot 😅 she’s 7. I would say I feel weary at bedtime routine with the kids because it takes longer than I feel like it should, but I know I will miss it so I try to embrace it when I think of that. My daughter just recently asked me to teach her to see! My heart felt so excited when she said that. I was about her age when my mom taught me to hand sew. I am looking forward to teaching her. ❤

[@mollydeckman]

I love that you said to rearrange things because that’s exactly what I want to do in some areas of my home, my son’s room is on the top of that list!

[@faithfulacresfarmhouse]

Oh, that is so precious that she wants to learn. It is very hard finding a good kid work balance. I 100% agree, and I also feel guilty. I also have to tell myself "kids come first" a lot. It's especially hard when you just want to get something done. You are doing such wonderful things for your family though, and your channel. They are very blessed to have you!

[@alicialyons1985]

I was just thinking about this. Will I choose to honor God or call prey to idleness....

[@francesanderson9692]

Hi Kelsey The download has a problem. I typed in all the boxes and it will not continue and keeps heading back to my name. I am mostly interested in the bread recipe you mentioned in this video. Thanks.

[@faithfulacresfarmhouse]

Email me at [e-mail] and I'll send the download over! Is it the meal plan? My bread recipe is: 1 cup warm to hot water + 2.5 tsp yeast + 1 tsp sugar (mixed) 1 stick melted butter 1/4 cup sugar 1 egg + 1 egg white (save yolk for egg wash before baking - egg wash is that yolk + 1 tsp water) 1 tsp salt 3.5 cups flour (until its sticky but not to the point you can't remove it from your fingers). I like to mix it for 15 minutes until super smooth. Rise for an hour or more Shape into 2 loaves or 1 artisan loaf and rise again another 45 minutes or more Bake at 425 for 25-30 minutes (I usually do 25).
