Embracing The Seasons of Homemaking

READ ABOUT & DOWNLOAD THE 10 DAY CHALLENGE: westmanacademy...
This autumn has been such a blessing for our family. We have enjoyed warm weather, fun activities, and beautiful scenery. Although I have been loving it, not every season of my life has been like this, and not every season going forward will be either. My prayer is that this video will help emphasize that not every season of life is joyous and beautiful. Sometimes, it isn't your season to do everything and be everywhere. Everyone will have certain seasons of life that are harder, lonelier, sadder, darker, fulfilling, joyful, uplifting, or maybe even neutral. Turn to God in ALL seasons. Allow Him to come in and help you during your season, to come in and change your life. Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate all the love and support you all have shown.
God Bless, Kelsey

As a 44 yr old mom of 2 teenage girls, I couldn't agree more with what your saying. I wish as a young mom I would have heard this to "Embrace the season you're in " , maybe I would have enjoyed it a bit more and not felt so stressed or like I wasn't measuring up. Now as an older mom I embrace it to the full and treasure the time I have left with my girls still at home. I lost my mama to breast cancer in February of this year and walking through this season of grief is tough, some days I don't want to do all the homemaker, homeschool, farm wife chores, but I do. Starting my day with devotions and prayer really helps me to put it all into perspective and be reminded of how God is there lifting me up , giving me the strength I need to serve my family and his people. Thanks so much for sharing your heart. God bless you and your family.

What a beautiful testimony. I'm so sorry for your loss, and I can imagine not feeling up to doing anything. What a blessing you are to your daughters. ❤️ I love what you said about feeling like you weren't measuring up. That is such a real feeling and struggle. Thank you so much for sharing. I need to do as you say and treasure the time left. 100% agree on starting the day with prayer and devotion. You are an inspiration!

The easier the better for me! Especially since I work full time - saving time where I can definitely helps me. I love being up and awake earlier in the mornings, if not I feel like I've lost some of the day.
I have been LOVING my 30s! I feel as if I've grown the most as a person in this season from getting married at the very end of 29 and being a mother. So many new beginnings and adventures have happened! My creativity has just been pouring out of me as well. I finally felt like I could decorate my house the way I want to. Before when we were in Utah since I knew it was temporary, I saw no need to decorate. I did the bare minimum there, but here in PA I'm slowly adding things as I go and just love it so much! And most of all, as of this year more than ever, my relationship with God has truly taken flight and I am amazed!
I have always been one who believes things happen for a reason.
Haha! We have little fingerprints and random spots of food/drinks on the walls and ceilings too! I've been embracing this messy season with small kids quite a bit. And I'm the same way with laundry! It tends to pile up and up if I don't stay on top of it every day.
Those pumpkin bars looked delicious! And wow, beautiful sunset! Sunsets were just incredible in Utah, I used to watch them all the time and couldn't get enough.

[@faithfulacresfarmhouse]

I love that you are enjoying your 30s! I feel like more people need to hear that. We have moved so much, and I totally understand how you felt about no seeing the point to decorating. I feel like the older I get the more confident I am, and the less I want to be trendy or fit in. This has definitely stemmed from my relationship with God, and growth out of social media. The sunsets here are fabulous. I'm sure PA is gorgeous too! We enjoy them every evening. You are very creative, which I am trying to work on. 🤪 It benefits you family in many ways.

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:34‭-‬37‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
[34] But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God’s throne; [35] nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. [36] Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. [37] But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.

Tie back dangling hair over food prep…so unsanitary to act like you know how to cook…when you don’t even show kitchen basic 101…. .
