I’m 55 years old woman divorced . I live alone. One daughter. I did not put up a Christmas tree this year. I wanted a quiet Christmas. The Lord is meeting me where I am. Im keeping my full attention on Christ. My cup is full. I’m doing good. Merry Christmas to all. God is truly Faithful. Thanks for sharing.♥️
I'm positive that God had a hand in sending this video to my feed....its far, far from the usual content. But its certainly what I needed this Christmas Eve. At nearly 60, divorced, no children, no grand children and virtually no close relatives left at all...thank you for this. Its given me at least some peace, comfort and hope for a sense of purpose in this season of life. Merry Christmas
Wow! God is good! And amazing that you got this video in your feed. I am so glad you found peace and comfort on this Christmas. Life is not easy...especially as we get older, and no one really seems to talk about those challenges. You are certainly not alone. Sending you many Christmas blessings...and lots of hope and love in the New Year!
As I lay in bed tonight reading, I heard my husband of 36 years unloading the dishwasher in the kitchen. I realized how much comfort the sound of him in the house brings me. I had an intense moment of thanksgiving for him and our journey together - for however long it may be. I know we are never alone - the Holy Spirit is always present but I am also grateful for the gift He had given me and pray for those who have lost their spouse and those who feel alone. But I Think we all know God is with us - Emanuel. Our loving Creator who lnever forsakes us. Be encouraged and know the Light of the World is with us.
Like some other commentators, I feel that the Lord brought you to my attention exactly when I needed it. You are a light, you warm and cheer and comfort. My husband is dying of cancer, and I have been full of fear and anger and sorrow, I could not see a future. You brought God back for me, I feel less lost, and that a good life is still possible. Thank you. How wonderful that I sit here in England, and can be reached by a good soul so far away. Something to be grateful for already. Happy New year.❤
I lived in a remote Appalachian mountain area, with my husband...for 30 years. We grew and preserved all our food, as well as hunted and fished. We heated our remote home with an outdoor wood furnace, cutting the wood from our forests. We both loved our life together. It all changed in an instant, when my husband died from a freak farm accident on our land. I had to make major life decisions while in deep grief and shock over his horrid death. I kept my faith strong, asked for Divine Guidance, wisdom, courage and strength. I FELT the love and strength of God and His guardian angels...and slowly built another life, far away from my much loved homestead lifetime with him. It was truly a walk of Faith with Jesus carrying me a lot of the way, but I am determined to be humble and thankful for my own life and to remain close in Faith.
Thank you for sharing. Sadly, farm accidents are all too common. Prayers for you and continued blessings. May God's grace and love continue to surround you and carry you.
This is the best Christmas message I have heard in a long time. It's exactly how I feel. There are so many unrealistic expectations about what Christmas represents. I embrace peace and quiet...silence really is golden. 🌟
Thank you!!! And wow...that is really nice to hear because I just speak from the heart in these videos...and what is on my heart...no script or real planning. So when I began talking about expectations, I just had to trust it. And I agree that silence is golden! Merry Christmas!!
This speaks to my heart more than anything I have seen or heard. Sad happenings in my life this Christmas Day but your message has helped me so so much. I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to your next video! Thank you so much ministering to my heart!
Just as I enjoyed Christmas, in His love alone but not lonely, filled with joy, and peace and enjoyed it. And yes, commercialised, greed, people were so happy in the old days to receive an orange!
I just stumbled about this Blessed TRUE meaning of Christmas !! Keep Christ in Christmas ! Not xmas which is eliminating x-ing Christ out ! GOD bless all the viewers !! Thank you !!
A beautiful and true word! I’m 71 and have spent holidays alone or with my single daughter and it has been such a meaningful celebration! Being thankful for what we have is the key …thank you Lord for sending your Son to bring us a relationship with You!
Thank you....I have no family and fur babies anymore. I do have Jesus in my heart. Sometimes it is hard to talk about having no one to share the holiday with. I remind myself that Jesus is always with me.❤
I just spent the past two Christmas’ alone and it was complete bliss. I listened to my favorite instrumental jazz Christmas music, while preparing and eating my favorite foods, texting friends from far away places and reading God’s Holy Bible. ❤
Merry Christmas. I just stumbled upon your channel this morning. I will be spending Christmas with my dog, as i have for the past decade. I totally love the peace and quiet from all the hype✨
I am so glad you stumbled upon Old Stone Well Farm on this Christmas Eve morning! I agree...I, too, love the peace and quiet. It really is beautiful. Merry Christmas to you and your dog...what is the dog's name? I have a Bernese Mountain dog named Fritz.
I'm just so glad to not be around narcissist or hurtful fake friends for the holiday........... with this paece I can focus on being close to God. And yes I found the last few years I avoid situations where anybody might ask me if I will be with family or what my big plans are for Christmas because it used to shut me down with sadness internally and embarrassment externally
My husband and I were moving over Christmas. From Washington state to Massachusetts. Back to New England and closer to family. Lost my sister in October and I’d like to closer to my other sister. But my daughter is in Texas and I haven’t seen her in years. I have that ache of missing everyone, and the ache of feelings like I missed Christmas this year. I’ve been playing Christmas carols and found your channel and it made me cry. Thank you for this message. Blessed be.
I am glad you found Old Stone Well Farm. Life is never easy and we often find ourselves in these seasons of change. Holding you in my prayers. Blessings!
A word in due season. Thank you. It took me a minute to snap out of disappointment with family...'cause "expectations" have been "dashed". But then, took a shower (tmi) while listening to classic Christmas music I've been avoiding, danced a bit to it while cooking myself a nice dinner then snuggled up with my three fur babies. As long as Jesus is with me, I'm not alone. P. S. Good word "reframe ". Something to remember come next year's holidays...and whenever "expectations" arise. God be my focus.
I am so glad you came to Old Stone Well Farm and heard words of encouragement. Yes, we never are alone. God sends the right angels and messages to us at the time we need them the most. Keep holding on to that truth. Blessings to you and a very Merry Christmas!
I am so glad you have visited Old Stone Well Farm and found something helpful!! New perspectives are blessings!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! @@johnappleton5500
This Christmas was my first without my husband, as he passed this past April. I know he is with the Lord & I am at peace with this knowledge. I have grown closer to the Lord & treasure my time with my daughter & grandkids more now than ever. God has given me his peace more now than before. I treasure the time spent with family but also treasure my alone times with my Lord more.
I too lost my dear husband this past April 😢. My world is still very much upside down and I can’t seem to get my head around the fact that I will go into the new year 2024 without him and have few plans that will excite me. But I am still so blessed that I can turn to my wonderful memories of our years together and all that we did see and do. God was/is so good to us both🙏🏻🙏🏻.
I am holding you in my prayers. The losses in our lives become even greater at the holidays, that is why I believe we need to remember always that we are NEVER alone. Emmanuel, God With Us. It is in our seasons of losses that God promises to wipe away our tears and bind up our broken hearts. Blessings to you.
I am holding you in my prayer as well. And you are indeed blessed to have those wonderful memories to cherish. Our loved ones are never far from us as they are always in our hearts!@@joypwc8402
I agree. My Christmas plans were derailed. I sat down quietly and just realized that God gave me the opportunity to sit quietly which I long for. I felt happy amidst the tragedy I cooked up in my own mind. Blessed be God. Thank you for such a beautiful presentation.
Christmas is such a Beautiful time to spend with God Creator an bask in His goodness ❤ my Heart is Just so so full of Love &Thanksgivin for all HIS L❤ve an Blessins !! Merry Christmas
This was so beautiful and exactly what I needed to hear. I had just earlier today spoke to my husband about my aging parents and the fact that we, ourselves have no children, wondering what our Christmases will be like when we are one day all alone. You certainly helped me put proper perspective on my needless worries. God is all we need. 🙏💞 Thank you!
I am so glad you came to Old Stone Well Farm and heard this message!! It's funny because I had spoke about aging parents and myself not having any children...but I edited that out of the video for sake of time. It is a worry on my heart as well and one I have been praying deeply about...and trying to trust God each and every day. Wishing you and your husband a very Merry Christmas. And I will keep you in my prayers as well! We really aren't alone. Blessings!
Dear Donna, I just discovered your channel and took a look at some of your video messages. I am touched to the heart. Your words and the images, the spiritual energy and the 'atmosphere' resonate to my soul. I immediately subscribed to your channel and I am looking forward to hear more from your inspiring words. I am a female biblical/theological student of 62 from the Netherlands. Thank you so much for your sharing. Sincere blessings! 🙏🕯
I am so glad you discovered my channel!! And thank you for subscribing. There have been times when I wondered what I was doing here...but every time I thought about stopping due to my busy life, it didn't feel right. This is a passion of mine and I love telling the stories of hope and God all around us. So thank you!!! And blessings to you in your studies!!! That is wonderful. Netherlands is on my list of places I hope to visit someday!
I lost my husband exactly 10 years ago on Christmas day.. The lonely heart will never go away. I have my family and friends and am so grateful for they are always there for me. But my heart will always have this empty,loneliness but I am grateful to God for everything in my life. If I didn't have the Lord God in my life I would be lost. But he is always there encouraging and loving me. May God bless and be within all of us.Amen❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It's New Years eve, and on my way to work, I came across this Video....How I needed this❤ , Thank you. // I purposely signed up to work Christmas and New years because I couldn't travel to see my Sons and family, As a Christian though I have all I need, Prayer helps me so so much. 🙏 ❤Peace on Earth.
The only thing i really love about Christmas is Jesus ,the music + Lights !! Im not a decorater at all. I find it stressful. I am married today to a wonderful Christian man but have said goodbye to close to 200 friends, family that i loved immensely + am so very thankful for their life. Living in the country does feel lonely at times. What a wonderful video presentation!! Much love to you all. Jesus loves you ! I love Him becsuse he first loved me Pretty soon we will all be with our Lord in His glorious presence forever ! I imagine we will have times of being alone with Jesus which we will cherish in addition to eternal reunion with our beloved ones.
I always have Christmas alone. Never married, no kids and at this time my friends live in other states. Last year I bought a small artificial Christmas tree that I placed next to my fake fireplace and this year I bought multicolored colored lights for it. I simply played instrumental Christmas music, had the tree lit and my Nativity candles turned on, made my favorite dinner and had a quiet Christmas with my cat. For me, I embrace what I have been given - roof over my head, food on my table, my cat who keeps me sane and the nature outside my apartment. I actually prefer a quiet Christmas.
The world really does its best to make being alone something to dread...when it isn't. I got married later in life and so I know what being alone is all about. But even though I am married now, I find I still celebrate Christmas "alone." My husband is not into Christmas. He is not a Scrooge, he just doesn't get into all the hype. So when he is at work or when he goes to bed, I get to turn off all the lights, light my candles and listen to all the Christmas hymns that I love. I used to feel sad that I was married and still having to do all this by myself, but only recently I have accepted that we are two different people and now I embrace celebrating in my own little way...alone. Even filming this video, my husband didn't come with me out into the woods. But again, I have come to accept and embrace it. Blessings to you!!
Yes me too. I am divorced, have no children and no siblings. I have been invited to spend Christmas day with my friend for many years but I prefer not to impose on people and happily stay at home. Like you, I feel blessed with my surroundings and know that there are many less fortunate people in the world. All the very best. 🌲🙏🤗
Christmas becomes "Christmas" for me in that moment at church on Christmas Eve, or rather, midnight Christmas morning, when we light candles and sing "Silent Night". From my vantage point at the front of the sanctuary, as a member of the choir, I watch the Light spread and see all of the beautiful faces, and hear the old, simple hymn being sung, and that moment is Christmas. We have a wonderful family and we celebrate in all of the usual ways, and we are far from alone. Yet that one moment in its simplicity is all I need.
That is so beautiful!! And so true that that is the moment "Christmas" becomes "Christmas." I, too, have always loved seeing the light grow in a sanctuary and seeing the beautiful faces...so many expressions. Thank you for sharing! And thank you for bringing back memories of Christmas Eve candle lighting for me as well!
Agreed! Connecting with Jesus should be number one. He is Christmas and the best Christmas is the one where He is primary and I can get away with just Him!❤
We had a quiet Christmas no family around me it breaks my heart but I had a lady join us who had lost her partner so she had Christmas lunch with us and she opened her heart to us God was with us God bless you❤❤❤
I don't feel sorry for your quiet Christmas. Your quiet Christmas is in a cozy cabin with a spouse you love and who loves you. And for this yes, you are blessed. And although we all are, some people are truly alone at this time. Some have lost spouses, some lost children, some never had any, or any siblings. It's hard not to feel the loneliness. The Cobbler story has been made into a song by Reba Mcentire called The Christmas Guest... makes me cry everytime I play it each year. Hearing it in song is so powerful.
I am alone for the last 3 Xmases. Alone ✨ NOT lonely. I am in the company of Jesus and my guardian 🙏 angels, my beloved cats and godsent internet!!!!!You are never alone if the Holy Spirit is within you.... Have a Blessed Christmas ⛄⛄ all the way from Cyprus....
Thank you for such a meaningful, grounded and caring video. This message absolutely reflects the real meaning of Christmas, and will bring light, comfort and joy to many. 🙏 ⭐
Thank you! It is amazing because this video almost didn't happen...up to the last minute I really didn't know what I wanted to share for the Christmas video. I thought was this the year I had nothing to say. Then I realized I just had to share where I was right now. I am so glad you visited Old Stone Well Farm! Blessings and Merry Christmas!
Thank you. Just moved to another state with my hubby. I was so used to hosting Christmas . Thank you for taking me back to the manger, the Son of God. Emmanuel, God with us ❤❤
Thank you for your comforting words, they are like an oasis of calm and tranquillity in a sea of over commercialism and pressure. It is nice to be reminded of the true meaning of Christmas. Although we may be alone, we are never alone if we stop , reflect, and allow the light of God into our lives.
Beautiful(also love Laura Ingalls wilder...I think many big family gatherings at Christmas have a lot of stress ..I lost my husband quite young +sometimes spend Christmas alone but am not lonely or stressed❤❤😊....love the snow +choir...a special msg...greetings from Africa
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for this beautiful message! It’s me & my cat!! I’m alone but your message reshaped my heart & I needed this! God Bless you!❤️👏👏🙏🏻
I asked Yeshua to replace my sad feelings with joy, and He did💕🥰💕🙏🏻👑🙏🏻🌟🌟🌟I believe the Magi came to Yeshua a few years later. Praise Yeshua for coming to earth to save us❣️👑❤️
Amen! And, yes, the Magi did come to Jesus a few years later...he was more likely a little boy rather than a babe when they arrives and presented him their gifts. Blessings!
My husband and I skipped all the typical Christmas everything this year to enjoy our solitude. We are enjoying our mountain, chickens, fresh air and each other. I watched a sweet movie on RUclips called Christmas Oranges. I’m sure you’d love it too. Merry Christmas and God bless.
What a beautiful video, everything you said is true, god is always with us, he is our heavenly father, your words were very comforting, have a lovely Christmas and god bless 🕊
I am so glad you came to Old Stone Well Farm and found a comforting messsage. I love doing these videos and I never really plan what I say. I just trust the Spirit and speak from the heart! Wishing you a very blessed Christmas!
I’m in tears watching this. So beautiful and simple. Thank you for the perfect message during this crazy time. Have a Merry Christmas and a blessed week.❤🎄
I am so glad you enjoyed your time at Old Stone Well Farm!!! It was a blessing to share a little bit of my world here in Vermont and my thoughts with you. And yes the Cobbler story is so beautiful...many different variations of it...I highly encourage folks to read it. Blessings and Merry Christmas!
I have adult children One of the 6 knows Jeaus as her Savior my other 5 no linger speak tomebecause after being single for 19 years My Lord blessed me with a Christian husband I am no longer at their beck and call I pray forthem daily
I am with my dogs and my cats for Christmas and I rode my bicycle and delivered some food yesterday and then dressed up for church and saw how crowded it was with groups and families and chickened out and spent a nice evening making cookies that I will deliver to some other neighbors later on today but despite my feelings of loneliness I am enjoying the solstice Solitude and the holiday celebrating the birth of a savior brought into this world to remind us love is the most important thing❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Merry Christmas to you and your adorable Channel that I just found
Your dogs and cats provide a lot of love--cherish them. I recently lost my 2 beloved senior companions, 7 months apart. Truly alone now--in an empty house--struggling to make the best of it. I talk with Jesus a lot ♥
@dragonfly9209 ohhhhhh, dragonfly I am so very very sorry. I pray the angels will surround you and provide you comfort & care and maybe a new pet will come into your life somehow
@dragonfly9209 you are welcome and you're in my prayers. I hope that you have a very blessed day. And I hope that your life will transform just like a dragonfly with those wonderful gossamer wings🕊🕊🕊🐦🔥🐦🔥🐦🔥🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽🪽🪶🪶🪶🪶🪶🐦🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭💜🩵💜🩵💜🩵💜🩵💜🩵💜🩵
Such a beautiful story and such a good reminder about what Christmas is about. Not about giving presents but enjoying the Presence of the Lord in our hearts and minds. And being aware of how He works. Merry Christmas ❤
I am now a so called "Christmas orphan". I have learned to enjoy what I do have and love to decorate for Xmas. I make myself a feast and had a friend over on Christmas day for another feast. I try to remember the happy memories I have and to be grateful for them.
Yes, glory to God in the highest. Often the very thing we are searching for is right in front of us. The babe in the manger...the angels in the skies...if only we look with eyes of faith! Merry Christmas!!!
I know it’s a couple days after Christmas but I needed to hear this. I spent Christmas alone yet again - I have 2 twenty five year olds and they choose to spend Christmas with their dad every year instead. I don’t put a tree up anymore but when I was a kid at Sunday School my teacher told me that the gift God gave us on Christmas is a gift we should celebrate everyday of the year and we don’t need all the decorations. I have embraced this idea my entire life. I live on the other side of the country from my other relatives which makes me alone on most Christmases as well. I do spend the holidays with my 2 cats and that’s enough for me - I hope to add a puppy in 3 years after I retire. Because of my career field I get to retire before most people my age - that’s a blessing in my book. Every time I go to the general doctor I see on the paperwork that she marks me as being depressed - I didn’t even know I was and the doctor never even mentions a word about this to me but yet writes it down. People think your depressed because your alone but to me being alone is peaceful with less drama and most people don’t remember why we celebrate and the meaning of Christmas in the first place.
Thank you for sharing! And I am so glad you found the Christmas message from Old Stone Well Farm! Onward we go and I hope you continue to be blessed by this channel. I, too, have a cat...and a bumbling Bernese Mountain dog. They are a handful. Blessings!
Even when your alone, your not I think the spirit of the Lord is even greater with us on the day. We are celebrating His birth into this world, his presents in our lives! Praise Him !
This popped up in my recommended vids and I’m glad it did! It’s my 8th year alone, (except for my cat) and I’m ok, but others aren’t ok with me being ok being totally alone!
I also Love Laura Ingalls Wilder!!! She was so happy for the people who would come at Christmas, too. Such a beautiful message. I just found you, and I am so thankful!
Amen! God is good!! I rejoice that He has brought so many to this message. I am floored! I am glad you came to Old Stone Well Farm!! Thank you. Blessings and Merry Christmas!
This was so very beautiful. It touched my heart and my soul sings on this night. Our Savior is born. Thank you for giving this gift. God bless you. .Linda in ohio
Thank you so much in sharing this like you said simple and quiet and in the still waters with my Jesus I give him thanks in all he has done for me but of who he is Merry Christmas
Thank you for this! That fireplace/fire is so beautiful! I used to feel ashamed that I was alone and would often fib when people asked me those questions about family leading up to the holidays. It took me decades to be all right with, and even revel in being alone during holidays.
That was beautiful I appreciate this message. So much change in our family is not the same but that is one of life lesson. I had no real expectations.my nephew and I seem to embrace the change although it can be hard. We miss our love ones .but our bond tends to grow stronger. Mostly I look for ways to give to those in need and of course nurture my relationship with Jesus grandeur of his presence in my life the real true meaning of this season .pray for everyone to have a blessed healthy new year
Thank you for this video. It certainly resonated with me. My husband and I are alone. During Christmas dinner I told him I didn't want to celebrate Christmas next year in the usual way. I don't want to put up boxes and boxes of decorations, or go crazy buying gifts. I just want to celebrate the religious aspect and forget the commercialism. I find myself comparing my life to others and not measuring up, and I don't want to live like that. I rob myself of simple joys that are so meaningful. Thank you so much for your inspiration.
You captured what I was trying to say beautifully!!! I am smiling because this is the first year I didn't decorate the tree. I just have a star and white lights on it. I wondered if that was "sad" what I was doing, but I decided that is what I was happy with and so it was okay not to do something just because I felt I had to. Be in the God moment...which will look different from the world's moments. Blessings to you and a Merry Christmas!
Can’t thank you enough for this video!!! I’ve done nothing but grumble and experience depression about my circumstances during this Christmas season, but your video has shown me the light. The True Light!
Welcome to Old Stone Well Farm!! I am so glad you discovered this channel!!! I hope you continue to enjoy the God moments I see all around. Blessings to you!!
Yes, this was perfect. God meets us where we are. I loved having my family all around and as a choir director, all the music at our Cathedral was so wonderful. However, I love when everything slows down and I can just meet God in the quiet silence. That is the holiest of times.
Amen! I agree. As a pastor, I love the holy silence of the sanctuary when everyone has gone home and I am about to leave. I just take it all in. The silence is so beautiful. Blessings to you!
I’m 55 years old woman divorced . I live alone. One daughter. I did not put up a Christmas tree this year. I wanted a quiet Christmas. The Lord is meeting me where I am. Im keeping my full attention on Christ. My cup is full. I’m doing good. Merry Christmas to all. God is truly Faithful. Thanks for sharing.♥️
Amen, and blessings to you!

I have grown closer to the Lord & treasure my time with my daughter & grandkids more now than ever. God has given me his peace more now than before. I treasure the time spent with family but also treasure my alone times with my Lord more.
I too lost my dear husband this past April 😢. My world is still very much upside down and I can’t seem to get my head around the fact that I will go into the new year 2024 without him and have few plans that will excite me. But I am still so blessed that I can turn to my wonderful memories of our years together and all that we did see and do. God was/is so good to us both🙏🏻🙏🏻.
I am holding you in my prayers. The losses in our lives become even greater at the holidays, that is why I believe we need to remember always that we are NEVER alone. Emmanuel, God With Us. It is in our seasons of losses that God promises to wipe away our tears and bind up our broken hearts. Blessings to you.
I am holding you in my prayer as well. And you are indeed blessed to have those wonderful memories to cherish. Our loved ones are never far from us as they are always in our hearts!@@joypwc8402
My Christmas was not so good! When I reflect on the love of Christ towards me...I'm overwhelmed by His Glory!
Blessings to you!
I agree. My Christmas plans were derailed. I sat down quietly and just realized that God gave me the opportunity to sit quietly which I long for. I felt happy amidst the tragedy I cooked up in my own mind. Blessed be God. Thank you for such a beautiful presentation.
It's all perspective. You are correct
Christmas is such a Beautiful time to spend with God Creator an bask in His goodness ❤ my Heart is Just so so full of Love &Thanksgivin for all HIS L❤ve an Blessins !! Merry Christmas
Very beautiful video thank you ❄️🕊️🌲
Thank you!!
🙏❤️
This was so beautiful and exactly what I needed to hear. I had just earlier today spoke to my husband about my aging parents and the fact that we, ourselves have no children, wondering what our Christmases will be like when we are one day all alone. You certainly helped me put proper perspective on my needless worries. God is all we need. 🙏💞 Thank you!
I am so glad you came to Old Stone Well Farm and heard this message!! It's funny because I had spoke about aging parents and myself not having any children...but I edited that out of the video for sake of time. It is a worry on my heart as well and one I have been praying deeply about...and trying to trust God each and every day. Wishing you and your husband a very Merry Christmas. And I will keep you in my prayers as well! We really aren't alone. Blessings!
Dear Donna, I just discovered your channel and took a look at some of your video messages. I am touched to the heart. Your words and the images, the spiritual energy and the 'atmosphere' resonate to my soul. I immediately subscribed to your channel and I am looking forward to hear more from your inspiring words. I am a female biblical/theological student of 62 from the Netherlands. Thank you so much for your sharing. Sincere blessings! 🙏🕯
I am so glad you discovered my channel!! And thank you for subscribing. There have been times when I wondered what I was doing here...but every time I thought about stopping due to my busy life, it didn't feel right. This is a passion of mine and I love telling the stories of hope and God all around us. So thank you!!! And blessings to you in your studies!!! That is wonderful. Netherlands is on my list of places I hope to visit someday!
It was 2-3 year before wise men showed up young child is how they addressed Him. Beautiful video.
I lost my husband exactly 10 years ago on Christmas day.. The lonely heart will never go away. I have my family and friends and am so grateful for they are always there for me. But my heart will always have this empty,loneliness but I am grateful to God for everything in my life. If I didn't have the Lord God in my life I would be lost. But he is always there encouraging and loving me. May God bless and be within all of us.Amen❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The lonely heart never does go away. Holding you in my prayers.
It's New Years eve, and on my way to work, I came across this Video....How I needed this❤ , Thank you. // I purposely signed up to work Christmas and New years because I couldn't travel to see my Sons and family, As a Christian though I have all I need, Prayer helps me so so much. 🙏 ❤Peace on Earth.
I am so glad you found Old Stone Well Farm! Blessings to you!!
The only thing i really love about Christmas is Jesus ,the music + Lights !! Im not a decorater at all.
I find it stressful.
I am married today to a wonderful Christian man but have said goodbye to close to 200 friends, family that i loved immensely + am so very thankful for their life.
Living in the country does feel lonely at times.
What a wonderful video presentation!!
Much love to you all.
Jesus loves you !
I love Him becsuse he first loved me
Pretty soon we will all be with our Lord in His glorious presence forever !
I imagine we will have times of being alone with Jesus which we will cherish in addition to eternal reunion with our beloved ones.
I always have Christmas alone. Never married, no kids and at this time my friends live in other states. Last year I bought a small artificial Christmas tree that I placed next to my fake fireplace and this year I bought multicolored colored lights for it. I simply played instrumental Christmas music, had the tree lit and my Nativity candles turned on, made my favorite dinner and had a quiet Christmas with my cat. For me, I embrace what I have been given - roof over my head, food on my table, my cat who keeps me sane and the nature outside my apartment. I actually prefer a quiet Christmas.
The world really does its best to make being alone something to dread...when it isn't. I got married later in life and so I know what being alone is all about. But even though I am married now, I find I still celebrate Christmas "alone." My husband is not into Christmas. He is not a Scrooge, he just doesn't get into all the hype. So when he is at work or when he goes to bed, I get to turn off all the lights, light my candles and listen to all the Christmas hymns that I love. I used to feel sad that I was married and still having to do all this by myself, but only recently I have accepted that we are two different people and now I embrace celebrating in my own little way...alone. Even filming this video, my husband didn't come with me out into the woods. But again, I have come to accept and embrace it. Blessings to you!!
Yes me too. I am divorced, have no children and no siblings. I have been invited to spend Christmas day with my friend for many years but I prefer not to impose on people and happily stay at home. Like you, I feel blessed with my surroundings and know that there are many less fortunate people in the world. All the very best. 🌲🙏🤗
Christmas becomes "Christmas" for me in that moment at church on Christmas Eve, or rather, midnight Christmas morning, when we light candles and sing "Silent Night". From my vantage point at the front of the sanctuary, as a member of the choir, I watch the Light spread and see all of the beautiful faces, and hear the old, simple hymn being sung, and that moment is Christmas. We have a wonderful family and we celebrate in all of the usual ways, and we are far from alone. Yet that one moment in its simplicity is all I need.
That is so beautiful!! And so true that that is the moment "Christmas" becomes "Christmas." I, too, have always loved seeing the light grow in a sanctuary and seeing the beautiful faces...so many expressions. Thank you for sharing! And thank you for bringing back memories of Christmas Eve candle lighting for me as well!
Agreed! Connecting with Jesus should be number one. He is Christmas and the best Christmas is the one where He is primary and I can get away with just Him!❤
We had a quiet Christmas no family around me it breaks my heart but I had a lady join us who had lost her partner so she had Christmas lunch with us and she opened her heart to us God was with us God bless you❤❤❤
Thank you I am by myself today - or am I then ? Merry Christmas 🎄
I don't feel sorry for your quiet Christmas. Your quiet Christmas is in a cozy cabin with a spouse you love and who loves you. And for this yes, you are blessed. And although we all are, some people are truly alone at this time. Some have lost spouses, some lost children, some never had any, or any siblings. It's hard not to feel the loneliness. The Cobbler story has been made into a song by Reba Mcentire called The Christmas Guest... makes me cry everytime I play it each year. Hearing it in song is so powerful.
Thank you! I need to listen to Reba's rendition of the cobbler story. Blessings to you!
There was no family gathered around, no gifts. I spent the morning worshipping and then spent a few hours with friends
Sweetheart..( I was humanly alone for Christmas too..But..) God is our family.. along with our brethren; and Christ is God's gift to us all!!!
I am alone for the last 3 Xmases. Alone ✨ NOT lonely. I am in the company of Jesus and my guardian 🙏 angels, my beloved cats and godsent internet!!!!!You are never alone if the Holy Spirit is within you.... Have a Blessed Christmas ⛄⛄ all the way from Cyprus....
Thank you for such a meaningful, grounded and caring video. This message absolutely reflects the real meaning of Christmas, and will bring light, comfort and joy to many. 🙏 ⭐
Thank you! It is amazing because this video almost didn't happen...up to the last minute I really didn't know what I wanted to share for the Christmas video. I thought was this the year I had nothing to say. Then I realized I just had to share where I was right now. I am so glad you visited Old Stone Well Farm! Blessings and Merry Christmas!
Thank you. Just moved to another state with my hubby. I was so used to hosting Christmas . Thank you for taking me back to the manger, the Son of God. Emmanuel, God with us ❤❤
Blessings to you!!!
Thank you for your comforting words, they are like an oasis of calm and tranquillity in a sea of over commercialism and pressure. It is nice to be reminded of the true meaning of Christmas. Although we may be alone, we are never alone if we stop , reflect, and allow the light of God into our lives.
Amen! You said it beautifully!
It literally is just me and my cat that struck a chord thank you for this so beautiful of a soul you are I really needed this❤️✨
Thank you! I am glad you found your time at the farm a blessing!
Beautiful(also love Laura Ingalls wilder...I think many big family gatherings at Christmas have a lot of stress ..I lost my husband quite young +sometimes spend Christmas alone but am not lonely or stressed❤❤😊....love the snow +choir...a special msg...greetings from Africa
WE ARE NEVER ALONE
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for this beautiful message! It’s me & my cat!! I’m alone but your message reshaped my heart & I needed this! God Bless you!❤️👏👏🙏🏻

I am so glad you found Old Stone Well Farm! Blessings to you!
I asked Yeshua to replace my sad feelings with joy, and He did💕🥰💕🙏🏻👑🙏🏻🌟🌟🌟I believe the Magi came to Yeshua a few years later. Praise Yeshua for coming to earth to save us❣️👑❤️
Amen! And, yes, the Magi did come to Jesus a few years later...he was more likely a little boy rather than a babe when they arrives and presented him their gifts. Blessings!
❤beautiful..i took this one for myself this yr ..and it was so beautiful..god is so wonderful
Thank you!!
My husband and I skipped all the typical Christmas everything this year to enjoy our solitude. We are enjoying our mountain, chickens, fresh air and each other. I watched a sweet movie on RUclips called Christmas Oranges. I’m sure you’d love it too. Merry Christmas and God bless.
That sounds like a beautiful way to enjoy Christmas!! And I will definitely look up Christmas Oranges. Thank you for that!!! Blessings to you!!!
Merry Christmas 🎄… and thank you…🕯️

Thank you!! I am so glad I was able to share. It is a blessing to know that we are not alone...many people have quiet Christmases. Blessings to you!!
I have tears in my eyes too. What a beautiful way to spend Christmas; alone with God! Merry Christmas everyone. Loved the story of the Cobbler!!
I am so glad you enjoyed your time at Old Stone Well Farm!!! It was a blessing to share a little bit of my world here in Vermont and my thoughts with you. And yes the Cobbler story is so beautiful...many different variations of it...I highly encourage folks to read it. Blessings and Merry Christmas!

You are indeed blessed! I am glad you have come to Old Stone Well Farm!!
I am with my dogs and my cats for Christmas and I rode my bicycle and delivered some food yesterday and then dressed up for church and saw how crowded it was with groups and families and chickened out and spent a nice evening making cookies that I will deliver to some other neighbors later on today but despite my feelings of loneliness I am enjoying the solstice Solitude and the holiday celebrating the birth of a savior brought into this world to remind us love is the most important thing❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Merry Christmas to you and your adorable Channel that I just found
Your dogs and cats provide a lot of love--cherish them. I recently lost my 2 beloved senior companions, 7 months apart. Truly alone now--in an empty house--struggling to make the best of it. I talk with Jesus a lot ♥
@dragonfly9209 ohhhhhh, dragonfly I am so very very sorry.
I pray the angels will surround you and provide you comfort & care and maybe a new pet will come into your life somehow
@dragonfly9209 we are sending you hugs and love

Such a beautiful story and such a good reminder about what Christmas is about. Not about giving presents but enjoying the Presence of the Lord in our hearts and minds. And being aware of how He works. Merry Christmas ❤
I am so glad you enjoyed your time at Old Stone Well Farm!! It means a lot! Blessings.
Beautiful ❤
Thank you. You speak to my condition.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! Some of us needed this badly. Thank you, and God bless you. 🙏✝️❤️🎄
God Bless. Yes Christmas or any time is about love and not material items. I love how you said that.
I am now a so called "Christmas orphan". I have learned to enjoy what I do have and love to decorate for Xmas. I make myself a feast and had a friend over on Christmas day for another feast. I try to remember the happy memories I have and to be grateful for them.
Oh , how I wish we could all live and walk on your beautiful property and surroundings. It looks absolutely peaceful, tranquil and silent.
Amazing message. Sometimes we cannot see what is right in front of us. Glory to GOD in the highest
Ory
Yes, glory to God in the highest. Often the very thing we are searching for is right in front of us. The babe in the manger...the angels in the skies...if only we look with eyes of faith! Merry Christmas!!!
I know it’s a couple days after Christmas but I needed to hear this. I spent Christmas alone yet again - I have 2 twenty five year olds and they choose to spend Christmas with their dad every year instead. I don’t put a tree up anymore but when I was a kid at Sunday School my teacher told me that the gift God gave us on Christmas is a gift we should celebrate everyday of the year and we don’t need all the decorations. I have embraced this idea my entire life. I live on the other side of the country from my other relatives which makes me alone on most Christmases as well. I do spend the holidays with my 2 cats and that’s enough for me - I hope to add a puppy in 3 years after I retire. Because of my career field I get to retire before most people my age - that’s a blessing in my book. Every time I go to the general doctor I see on the paperwork that she marks me as being depressed - I didn’t even know I was and the doctor never even mentions a word about this to me but yet writes it down. People think your depressed because your alone but to me being alone is peaceful with less drama and most people don’t remember why we celebrate and the meaning of Christmas in the first place.
Thank you for sharing! And I am so glad you found the Christmas message from Old Stone Well Farm! Onward we go and I hope you continue to be blessed by this channel. I, too, have a cat...and a bumbling Bernese Mountain dog. They are a handful. Blessings!
Great message .👍 The number of people doesn't determine the quality/ richness, of the day. ❤️🙏🕊️
Amen!!
That’s beautiful. Christmas can be celebrated in so many ways.
Amen! Christmas is so much more than what we tend to try to make it to be. I am so glad you enjoyed it! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
Thank you for taking the time to get a great message. So warming. Cats are a great company in any need. Happy 2024. All the best.
You are welcome! Glad you came to Old Stone Well Farm. And I agree. Cats are wonderful company!!
Merry Christmas🎉🎉I fully agreed with you. Embrace what I have and Christmas is what we make it in our hearts❤..just simple and quiet..
And Merry Christmas to you!!!
Even when your alone, your not I think the spirit of the Lord is even greater with us on the day. We are celebrating His birth into this world, his presents in our lives! Praise Him !
Thank you.😢
I'm in tears...tears of joy. Thank you for this beautiful message and reminder about God's immeasurable Love for us. He is enough! God bless!
Blessings to you!
This popped up in my recommended vids and I’m glad it did! It’s my 8th year alone, (except for my cat) and I’m ok, but others aren’t ok with me being ok being totally alone!
I am so glad you came to Old Stone Well Farm!!! It is okay to be alone...many people don't understand that. Blessings!
@@oldstonewellfarm …thank you 🤗🇬🇧

Blessings to you!
Thanks for your beautiful thoughts about Christmas. It was inspiring.
You are welcome! And thank you for coming to Old Stone Well Farm. I am glad you enjoyed it!!! Blessings!
Beautifully done.
Thank you!!! I am so glad you enjoyed it!!! Wishing you a blessed Christmas!
Thank you for this! That fireplace/fire is so beautiful! I used to feel ashamed that I was alone and would often fib when people asked me those questions about family leading up to the holidays. It took me decades to be all right with, and even revel in being alone during holidays.
I am new to your channel...but I loved the way you explained about Christmas...hugs n love from Malaysia to your family.
Welcome to Old Stone Well Farm! I am glad you enjoyed it!! Blessings!
That was beautiful I appreciate this message. So much change in our family is not the same but that is one of life lesson. I had no real expectations.my nephew and I seem to embrace the change although it can be hard. We miss our love ones .but our bond tends to grow stronger.
Mostly I look for ways to give to those in need and of course nurture my relationship with Jesus grandeur of his presence in my life the real true meaning of this season .pray for everyone to have a blessed healthy new year
The Lord said let your light so shine!
Thanks for identifying the music! It's "The Sussex Carol." Lovely choice and again, thank you! 😊
Our family growing up always celebrated little Christmas on Epiphany. ✝️
I love that! I am moving more and more to doing that as well. Blessings to you!
Thank you for this beautiful message ❤🙏
You are so welcome
Have tears in my eyes, thank you so.
Blessings to you!
That was beautiful, Merry Christmas.
Thank you, Dave!!! Wishing you and your family a blessed Christmas!!
Thank you for your message , simple et powerful . I m happy to have find your channel. I m following you now. Have a good day . Clement from France
I am so happy you discovered Old Stone Well Farm! I hope you continue to enjoy the content! Blessings!
Thank you for this video. It certainly resonated with me. My husband and I are alone. During Christmas dinner I told him I didn't want to celebrate Christmas next year in the usual way. I don't want to put up boxes and boxes of decorations, or go crazy buying gifts. I just want to celebrate the religious aspect and forget the commercialism. I find myself comparing my life to others and not measuring up, and I don't want to live like that. I rob myself of simple joys that are so meaningful. Thank you so much for your inspiration.
You captured what I was trying to say beautifully!!! I am smiling because this is the first year I didn't decorate the tree. I just have a star and white lights on it. I wondered if that was "sad" what I was doing, but I decided that is what I was happy with and so it was okay not to do something just because I felt I had to. Be in the God moment...which will look different from the world's moments. Blessings to you and a Merry Christmas!
I’ve spent several Christmases alone. I planned what I could do to make it special. I am grateful.
Can’t thank you enough for this video!!!
I’ve done nothing but grumble and experience depression about my circumstances during this Christmas season, but your video has shown me the light. The True Light!
I am so happy to hear that! Thank you for watching!
No expectations❤brings peace
Thank you for teaching me to embrace the silence of Christmas and the power that silence holds.
Just found you! Retired from ministry, your message was absolutely needed in this hour! Merry Christmas
Welcome to Old Stone Well Farm!! I am so glad you discovered this channel!!! I hope you continue to enjoy the God moments I see all around. Blessings to you!!
I love being by myself...always have...always will...
Beautiful message and beautiful footage. Merry Christmas to you and your husband. Christmas is what we make it in our hearts.♥
Thank youm Sue!! And a very blessed Chrismats to you!!!
Yes, this was perfect. God meets us where we are. I loved having my family all around and as a choir director, all the music at our Cathedral was so wonderful. However, I love when everything slows down and I can just meet God in the quiet silence. That is the holiest of times.
Amen! I agree. As a pastor, I love the holy silence of the sanctuary when everyone has gone home and I am about to leave. I just take it all in. The silence is so beautiful. Blessings to you!
