I'm 16 and really find these videos very helpful and encouraging, especially since majority of my school environment is worldy and secular (Also by no means am I judging; you just notice it a lot more when you are saved and let go of your old self). I'm nowhere near ready to be and mother or wife right now😅, but if I God willing I pray I will be both in my future. She is like a big sister that is leading us down the right path. 💕

Wow this is EXACTLY what I needed! I have been wrestling with perfectionism in the home! And during this season of postpartum and the family getting sick and busy schedules I recently felt like I was always behind and I hated myself for it. I thrive in routine and keeping the home tidy yet when it gets off schedule I end up feeling not enough. Not good enough of a mother. Not good enough of a wife. Not good enough for myself. Even simply loving myself and listening to my body when I’m way beyond exhausted and needed rest. I now realize I made my routine into my idol.

You spoke this so well. This has been my trouble area as well, but for me, I hear what I think others would think of me if they saw my home or what wasn't getting done etc., and so now I see that has been another part of the perfectionism and idol.

I jumped right back into it way quicker than I expected after having my 3rd this time around. While it seems so great I regretted it months after. I can agree with everything you’re saying, postpartum is a very vulnerable time. You’re doing the Lords will and the enemy loves taking advantage of any cracks remained open. I love this real and raw feelings you’re able to share with us as it spreads awareness of how in depths postpartum and centering your life on Christ for every single litte thing. I just had this conversation with my husband after the early deep postpartum months that it really is a spiritual battle for the both of us, the anxiety, depression, worries. It is bound to happen because we just grew a human. Your body mind and soul is healing. Lean on the Lord. Thank you for this beautiful message.

Here I am, so proud that my 2 month old is now sleeping through the night. Getting into a routine after having such a rough time the first month. Not that it has become easier because all days are different. But I’m finally able to take a shower, brush my teeth, EAT during the day. I was into my word, praying to the Lord to guide me through this transition into a first time mom. Now here I am idolizing my home, just like you,and not being in my word every day because “there’s so much to do in the house” and feeling guilty if my husband came home to a mess or me smelling from not showering. Thank you Lord, for using Milena as a vessel ❤

Oh I can completely acknowledge that good things can become idols. Especially having kids, finding a husband, taking care of a home, etc. so many women make having kids their entire life and stop putting God first. It’s mind blowing once your eyes are open to this reality. These are good things but don’t out them before Christ!

Thanks for sharing. I think my idol this season has been sleeping and and just relaxing in bed. In and of it self 'rest' is not a bad thing but idolising and living for it is. I have found that it at times has stopped me from praying and spending quality time with the Lord. it is definitely something that I will be addressing.

I also love Ecclesiastes! I listened to a Bible project podcast and Tim actually said that “smoke” would be a better translation than “meaningless.”This life has meaning, but it’s here and it’s gone; it passes through our fingers like smoke. I think the Hebrew word is actually “breath.”

Wow… I was just diagnosed with an autoimmune diseases and I’m 99% positive that it’s from this. My second son was born in November and I have a newly two year old. I’ve been struggling with this since my husband went back to work at 1 month postpartum. I have no idea how to continue with my responsibilities as a mother, wife, housekeeper, and individual without idolizing it the way you described. I feel like a failure if anything falls short or if my kids aren’t put before me 100% of the time. I can’t even shower without anxiety. I feel like this video and the next one you put out are signs from God. I have an appointment with my doctor today and am hoping I haven’t damaged myself too badly.

I just had my fourth child and the postpartum experience this time around has emotionally been very different. I was also feeling very "Ecclesiastes" about everything and even still now. I had the opposite problem though where I was resting too much...but not really beneficial rest...more like I'd give myself permission to watch my favorite shows until all hours of the night because my baby was going to wake up for a feed soon anyway. I'm learning ab out discipline and also really trying to treasure this time more than just getting through it. Thank you for your videos. I'm always just a little bit not wanting to watch because I don't want to be convicted, but I'm always so glad I do watch them. The Lord is using you!

So so good!! 💕 So important for postpartum mamas to hear this. Lord willing there will always be household tasks to give glory to the Lord with HOWEVER we only have our children in our home for so little time. Don’t think twice about the little chores during those precious baby days!! And lean on your spouse to take on some of those tasks you usually enjoy doing while you’re in that freshly postpartum season! You are ONE with your spouse, and it just makes sense for them to do the tasks that are usually yours…it took my husband and I having kids to really understand what being ONE and working as a Team meant…it was such a a beautiful blessing, and showed us how having children can bring you closer to your spouse if you let the Lord lead.

Even my husband has been telling me about this but I was too stubborn to listen. Keeping a tidy house has become an idol for me and I’m crying because it prevents me from spending those quality moments with my 11month old daughter, I don’t wanna wake up one day regretting that I didn’t spend those moments pouring into life and telling her about Jesus.

I’m so ashamed to say that I am an isrealite myself. I was baptized early December and delivered my sweet girl late December. I’m so embarrassed to say Since then I have become such a lazy Christian. I have fallen and need to get back up.

Pfoe. This is so loaded and difficult for me. I have been postpartum for 11 months now. I have a 5,5 year old with autism and my husband is away for work 12 hours a day. The baby is very fussy and crying all the time still. It’s draining and I find myself in this constant state of trying to get the bare minimum done, but it is all consuming. And I know it’s not right. I have been crying out to God and feeling at my wits end for many months. It feels like my body just won’t bear much more. Mentally too. I feel like my home and our family goal of moving (and therefore making a bigger income) is definitely becoming an idol. But how does it not? How do I stay in this situation or try to get out of it without going overboard every single day? There’s like no way I could do less, because I’m already doing the bare minimum. I’m praying the replies on this comment can pull me out of my stuck mindset and into where God wants to lead our family.

Currently wrestling with breastfeeding and milk production as an idol. Couldn’t see it until recently and I’m 3 weeks PP! Praise God that He reveals things and gives us grace. Now all I need is to say Lord whatever Your plan is that’s fine with me, wether I feed by breast/bottle or EBM/formula this child is YOURS. Much love for you and the work God is doing in your life!

I love your videos but I do miss your old content as well. Seems like you’re only a Christian Channel now. Would love to see more recipes or homeschooling videos ect. But again just my opinion. Still love your videos though❤

This is interesting as iv been watching you for the past year and a half. I started implementing some of your teachings, mothering/homemaking ect. I very quickly became angered, depressed and I prayed about it. He told me that these KZbin videos were becoming idols & that I was quickly becoming “religious and legalistic”. We have to be very careful in how we label “Christian homemaking” “trad wife” “Christian wife” “submission” ect. It can become legalistic and thus turning us away from God instead of towards God. Instead of leaning on God to teach us how to be mothers and wives we go to KZbin’s and influencers. We are putting pressure on ourselves to be someone that God never even called us to be. We are putting expectations on ourselves that God never placed on us. Therefore we are becoming tired, drained and burnt out because we aren’t leaning on the Holy Spirit. Last week I heard something that changed my life. “Are we placing our identity in “Christianity” or in Jesus. They two very different things. Christianity allows us to places rules, expectations & legalistic values on ourselves. Jesus just loves us.

Hi Milena! I am currently 25 weeks pregnant and I am just now realizing that I would love to do a home birth. Could you please pray that the Lord open doors for this to happen? You have shown me so much of beauty that can be had by giving birth at home. Prayers to make this come true would be very appreciated! :)

Hi Rebecca! I’m not Milena (obviously lol) but I will pray for you! 28weeks myself and a strong believer in home births! God designed us to carry and deliver babies! I pray that you will find the support and assistance you need for the peaceful home birth you desire. God bless you and your baby!

I was raised Christian and converted to Islam after my journey through cancer and it brings so much warmth and comfort knowing how much our religions share and how I can still come to a Christian channel and feel like I am getting the same message as from my own religion. Really praise God for how we can turn to Him in times of need and in times of comfort ❤ thank you for this video
