Dad Said When I Was Growing Up . . . "It Is Your Decisions, Not Your Conditions, That Will Form Your Future The Most". So True.
I love this! 💖🙏🏻
Funny this video came out today. My husband just lost his job today after working for this company for 19 years. He has always been their number 1 sales person, building Pole Barns. Unfortunately but fortunately they got rid of his division so they let him go. However we both feel this is a blessing as he has not been happy in the direction the company is moving in. We both know God will open the door that will work for him. He always does. God is good. So for now he will collect unemployment, get his resume together and will look for his next journey. Thank you for sharing your story, I am so glad I came across your channel. Love following you, your family and the fire ants. That had me laughing so hard I was crying. Much love & God bless your family.
God bless you…I’m sure our Mighty all knowing God has something bigger and better in store for your family….wishing you many successes and future blessings🙏🏻💖
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤❤ Many Blessings to you and your family Watch God Do His Work Act On Your Faith and Praise God In Advance Amen and Hallelujah 😁👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
My husband and I have been married 28 years. We been through so many hard times. Finally next month we will be moving into our first bought home. A small house on a acre of land. I can have a huge garden and my chickens. God is Good.
That was a great story, I am now 71 but if I were younger I would do things a lot differently I think it would have saved my marriage and built a stronger family bond. Congulations for working your way up.
The funniest video of y’all was when you were at your old place and you were getting rid of the composting toilet. Jen was helping you carry it out dry heaving and saying ‘I can’t’, I laughed so hard!!
Yes I have to agree with that. That was sooooo funny!!!😂😂😂😂
That was hilarious! I have watched that video multiple times. Best you tube video
I totally agree…I don’t think I have ever laughed so much in my life! That vlog was epic! Blessings🙏🏻💖
You all are so inspiring. When I got married 10 years ago, we had no idea the troubles we would be foinf through. Between a very premature baby, to the sudden death of my brother, to dealing with cancer and then being the caretakers for my grandpa untill he passed, we still struggle financially, but we have our love, our family, and our faith. I hope to one day be back at my old homeplace, and make it our home and farm, but for now we are living in the city in our home, with my little garden, raising 2 beautiful girls.
Jesus bless u
We were never told the journey would be easy, but we were told he would walk with us in our journey. Gods blessings to all. Great story.
God is definitely good.And you guys are so blessed to have each other and such a close knit family.
From one Christian to another God is good
Many people go through circumstances where the outcome can't be controlled (i.e.: getting fired or layed off). It's how you pick yourself up, and start over again that makes the difference. We learn from our past experiences. Y'all landed on your feet, and thats a good thing.
I had a similar situation in my first marriage with work, and my husband. I've learned to make sure we always have security for our family financially. Always have an emergency fund of at least 6 months to 1 year income in the bank, no debit (credit card), and food stored because now a days there is no job security. You can be dedicated to the job, work for 20 or 30 years and in a heart beat be unemployed.
So true.. Especially with the current situation with covid pandemic.
Great how you share your story in these hard times people need to hear that hard times don't last. With God and hard work all things are possible. Again thank you may God bless you all.😊🙏💗
I homeschooled my son from the beginning all the way through. He is now 18. It was a success! We sacrificed everything in order to do that and have me home with him. I too worked as a CNA beforehand. We lived with a dry well etc. Our stories are very similar! Looking back I wouldn't do anything different! Blessings to both of you!!!
If I had given up when raising my 4 kids with a dead beat dad, I would have had to give up my kids. But giving up was not for me . Struggles make us stronger people. Love your story guys.
Jesus bless u jo
I agree 110 percent
I know some people that needs to hear this …
Your parents don’t owe you nothing!!!
The best part of relationships is that you grow TOGETHER! Both the ups and the downs. You are such an inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
I love that you decided to be a stay at home mom. I did it back in the early 70’s. And I am now 68. And I have never regretted it. Neither have my kids.
I'm a nurse and it makes my heart feel good when you say you loved your job. I know it was a tough one.
We moved across the country for 10mo chasing the dream, but the dream was realized differently. It was alot of sacrifice but the reward was worth it.
Wow! Your story is so similar to what we are going through. Just lost a job and not hearing back from any applications put in. Trying to have faith and trust God. I know He has a plan. He is so good.
You two always amaze me. You are so young but so much wiser then the majority of kids your age. In the world we live in now a days thirty some year olds act more like 16 year olds. You also seem to be teaching your kids the same values. Your parents should be so proud of you both. I know this old 67 year old grandmother would be.
❤️
Today I rejoice in my 8 year anniversary of coming back to my faith and falling in love with God. 7 years ago, the bottom fell out in my world and I ended up stuck with 11 months of a lease and no roommates with a part time job while I went to night school. I got a pay or evict probably 8 of those months and watched God show up every time as only He can. God bless you two
It is good to hear your success story and to see your family flourish!
This is one of the many reasons why I love y'all's channel is because y'all share your ups and downs and that y'all are just like anybody else that has struggled and has succeeded in life... And believe me I know all about it I have been homeless I've been evicted I've lived with the power water etc it was always me and my mom no fault of her own we lived off of my disability and it only go so far but God heard my prayers and I was finally able to buy home and my mom got to enjoy this house for a couple years before she passed which was a couple months ago!! And if anybody else is reading this if you're struggling there's always a light at the end of the tunnel just keep praying an One foot in front of the other 👣✝️📖🛐
Beautiful story!
I’m sorry for your loss…God bless you 🙏🏻💖
God helps those, who help themselves.
Y’all have a great background. It shows how hard work and determination pays off. God bless!
Your story leading up to this is so inspiring! You’re so resilient and work so hard!
I get so excited when you post that I stop what I'm doing to watch y'all!!! Love you all!!!😊💕
❤️❤️
Me too!
Me too!
Me too! I’ve missed seeing y’all together as much as before!!
I do too
You are correct! Sometimes you have to be uncomfortable! It builds character!
Amen,Amen and Amen! Without a struggle what would life be. It makes us appreciate things that we have so much more by struggling a little for them. It's so sad in this world that we live in today that this lesson is not taking to heart by so many. Without a dought it's great to see a man stand by his wife and see that her desire to be a stay at home Mom come true. And for a woman to stand by her husband and support him and hold him up in times of hardship. A blessed family for sure. Thanks for sharing your story it sure did my heart and spirit good today!
"You get up and you do better" Great words Jen
My husband and I have been there too….we had weeks where we had less than $10 for the week to pay for gas and food…my garden and my canning saved us many a time in those days! Things are better these days for my family but we never forget where we came from for sure! Thanks for sharing! God bless you guys…love ya🙏🏻💖
You two continue to inspire so many of us. Many blessings to you and yours 💜💜💜💜
Thank the Lord for Blessing you through thick and thin 🐦✝️.
You have done so much for the betterment of your Family Zach. And you know behind every good Man is a wonderful Woman 💝.
JO JO IN VT 💕😄
So well told...i too have had a hard time through my life, but every sacrifice for my kids has been worth it...and they are wonderful Christian married adults who are very grateful for all of their own successes(in other words, they aren’t spoiled lol). I say it every time, but you two are so special...thanks for sharing your story and also giving God praise. I know I could’ve never raised my kids as a mostly single mom without Jesus. I’ve been happily remarried to a wonderful man who was an army sweetheart of mine when we served together. We are living the dream...sharing the joy of 8 grandkids!🥰 We give God all the glory! Thanks for sharing your story and I think so many of us can relate! God bless!
You two are such an inspiration to other couples. Your love and devotion to each other shines right through the screen. My husband passed away last year, and I miss being part of a couple. My prayer for you is you never know this feeling. Love you guys.
I've lived the same way for a while. Sometimes you have to do what you have to do to get by. We're in a better place now.
Everything happens for a reason 💚🌱💚
So many of us have gone through struggles such as yours. We’re older than you folks and we didn’t finally get our life on track (financially) until about 7-1/2 years ago. It’s such a blessing to actually not have to worry from one day to the next. We are very blessed!
Very inspiring journey. Such a beautiful property.
God has a plan for each believer. Our job as a believer is to pay attention to God's will in our life. Trials come to test our faith. Congrats for listening for God's will in your journey. He is very pleased when we follow Gods will. Most of the time it is not easy street.
How sweet!
We have been and are living in a camper right now, with no heat or AC. We have running water, but no "plumbing". We use an outhouse. It is hot in here right now, but it is exciting as we work and progress on our log cabin daily, in between all that life throws at cha'. God is good; and we wouldn't be able to do this, if not by His providence. Just need to keep the faith. Thank you for sharing your story.
I appreciate you telling it how it is/was! Not many are brave enough to admit some of this stuff. I personally have been there, done that! Best wishes, your doing great!
How wonderful of you to share your wisdom. encouragement and edification need to be shared. So often we can think no one else has ever walked a journey like us. May you continue to be blessed!
Oh man I feel this. So many people can take weeks off after a baby but I was on the page as you. I only took two weeks off after I had my baby and it set me so far back. So proud of where you guys are. You inspire us!!
Y’all’s place gives me lil house on the Prairie vibes
I can so relate! Lived that way for year's!
I have learned through much life and wisdom that God is so faithful that IN HIS TIME He will bless his children A M E N !!!!!!!!!!
All in God’s Timing
Looking back at my life, I feel like I was lead by God to where I am today. It wasn't easy, there were a lot of Pioneer Spirit moments. But .... the adventure was worth it.
Love you chats and words of wisdom, I really miss Monday night stories 😂 when you brought up the “flushing toilet “ I started laughing out loud!! Love you guys❤️
Thank you for reminding me I need to have faith to reach my goal.
I remember watching you sitting on your old porch, you were so sad not confident but you pushed on, made a beautiful garden, grew lots of food, and your confidence grew. It was wonderful to see you both grow and gain more subscribers and look at you now well done both of you, you truly deserve all the blessings thank you for taking us along on your journey.
I've been so far down I lived in my car (before it was a cool thing to do!) to being a land owner. The hard days have left many fond memories while my boys were younger. Now we're able to help if necessary, we've opened our home to son and his two daughters, and we're across the cou try from all our family (we're in KY from AZ).
Of most things, I love having a car that is reliable instead of working home health and requesting clientsmon the bus line!
Love this!!! We left better paying jobs in Lexington to move to Western KY to live our dream. I must say we are so much happier and building our farm.
Your homestead is so beautiful but not as beautiful as your hearts and story, God Bless y’all 💕
Glory be to GOD
That's absolutely right, put your life in God's hands. Always keep the faith. Loved the video got to know more about who you are. ❤ Y'all Take Care and God Bless
You two need to tell this story at the homesteaders conference . This would be so motivational for every aspect of life
We've heard most of this story but only in tiny bits at a time. Now we have all the little pieces in between.
Thank you for sharing it all in a single story. I know that it will help someone realize that hard work & sacrifice will get them thru the tough times.
Love how honest and open you are. Thank you for sharing your story.
You all have a great attitude about life, keep dreaming and setting goals,never give up. God bless
OMG all your babies are so BIG now!
Stivers Strong! Jen-of course your nurturing, caring, dedicated nature and spirit led you to be a CNA. Thank you for giving to patients in need-you are appreciated and beautiful! ❣️
Love you guys. Love your story. Blessings to you and your family from western Ky!
What a great testimony of what hard work, sacrifice and faith can't get you.
Thank you for sharing more of your story. You are both so good for each other, and you bless us by sharing.
You look so pretty, Jen! I've not been here from the beginning, but I've fallen for your family. I'd love to come do chickens with you guys the next time you process them. We don't have them yet, but I can't wait. Thank you for sharing your story!♥️♥️
We are in it now. We are both on disability now which doesn’t help. Our house is falling apart around our ears we can’t afford a new mobile home so we think we can build a metal building home cheaper but having a very difficult time coming up with starting money. We can’t borrow it or we won’t be able to pay for the building. Please say a prayer for us. We are lucky that our kids are grown the youngest still lives at home but she works full time so pays for her expenses. Anyway I’ve been in your shoes a couple of different times in my life with the losing a job or house. We lost our house to fire in 2010 I think. Love u guys!!!
You are in our prayers and thoughts ❤️
I love y’all... y’all are so sweet!!! I have loved watch y’all’s Journey for the pass years!! God bless.... I look forward to see what the future holds!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing. God bless your wonderful family.
I made your chicken recipe. My husband LOVES it, so do I. Thanks for sharing that recipe with us
God is good!
Very wise words you offered.
I absolutely LOVE the transparency and honesty of your story, it’s nice to know that one day, I can have what you all have now 🙌💙 love you guys, and love watching your channel! Hello from South Jersey!
You guys are so sweet and it makes my day to see what you are doing!! We love you right back❤️
Thank you for sharing.Love your videos.
I needed to hear this today. I already knew it in the back of my mind... but there is something about hearing the words.
You guys are such an inspiration for myself & so many others. My husband is currently a contractor for the Army & his job could go away at any moment, so I completely understand that aspect, it’s stressful having a job like that.
Uplifting
I so love you Stivers!! Omg I have been following your vlogs for a time before your move, but now hearing your whole story - Wow! I love you all even more. And I'm so proud of for your dreams, faith and trust in God and one another. I've watched your dreams become a reality right before my eyes! Love your realness and bravery. Just love you like my own. Love from Indiana, Rossi J
I am so glad you shared your story. I am relatively new to the channel and never knew your history. 🙏🙏🙏 for continued success!!
What a wonderful story. SO happy for you guys. New subscriber here and I am here to stay.
Different 'Life' but same 'Story' to tell. This was an 'Outstanding' video, thank you!
Hello, from Somerville, Alabama.....better picture with the Go Pro.....Larry @ Scoot's Organic
Amen
I'm dreaming big over here and y'all are certainly an inspiration. Like others have said, there are a few channels that you just have to stop what you're doing and watch new uploaded videos right away! TYSM
Life is hard and you do what you have to.
I love where you are now, it looks beautiful behind you. We sacrificed a lot also but it got better and better, now we are about to retire.
Thanks for sharing your story, you guys really are an inspiration. My SO and I are living with family at the moment with a goal of homesteading. It's quite literally an impossible goal but we're leaning on our faith that God sees the desires of our hearts and will guide us through. I love you guys and can't wait to (hopefully) meet you some day!
Evening Stivers Family 👋 Was nice to get to know y'alls story. We all go through phases and hard times. I know your faith and goals is what keeps y'all smiling. God has blessed your family and appreciate y'all sharing your story with us. I can only support y'all by watching your videos and love y'all too. Stay safe and God Bless y'all and the farm 🙏✌❤😊
Yes my dad always told me "sacrifice now or sacrifice later" so hats off to yall! I am a Dreamer and I totally understand your whole situation. I have had my ups and downs to and working towards my dream NOW!
Good Morning 😃👋💚💜❤️👍
Faith is the only thing to continue your dream. Love your story and look where you are now. Thanks for sharing. God gives you a path your to choose ❤❤
I love your story, thank you for sharing! God's beautiful blessings!!!
Love ur story. You are good people with the right outlook for ur life and the lives of ur children. God bless you and keep you safe and happy. Txs for sharing
It’s good to share our experiences. We never know who they will encourage.
God gives us free choice, with his guidance we can make the correct choices. I just wanted to say that basket of flowers above your heads from what I can tell is gorgeous.
I agree with you , if you want a certain life you will have sacrifice a ton! We wanted land more than anything and we decided to live in a fifthwheel offgrid here in Alaska. We will build eventually but we sacrificed the “Norm” to start homesteading! We love it
Gods timing. Blessings to you
Everyone should have to learn how to live on a budget. Tough times make us stronger.
