    Hi Diana, I loved what you shared about prejudice, jealousy and self deceit. I will mull this over while I pick raspberries and snap green beans! As a 67 year old I agree with you that wisdom is hard earned and I wouldn’t go back to younger me. Thank you too for your prayer.

    I love that you go beyond the literal words, which would have left out physically blind people, and instead you discuss how and what we expose ourselves to and how we interpret it to be filled with light. When you "look" at the world with love, you exude love and you impart this comfort to the world. This is what people perceive when they look at you.

    I would absolutely be delighted to have you as my neighbor. They have no idea how much God has blessed them to move next door to you and your great big loving family. I look forward to your messages and thank you for your prayers. They bring me closer to Jesus. Now, go in His name and meet the new neighbors.

    It’s never the right time! Just do it!
    We just moved in 2 weeks ago. No one came to greet us in this way yet. But my 6 yr old really wanted to meet the neighbors (thanks Bluey). So we baked brownies and cupcakes and set out to greet them instead. Most were caught off guard, because you’re right, people don’t greet as often as they used to. I am glad we did it though. It was fun to bring a little hospitality to the neighborhood.
    Thanks for sharing your wisdom as always. You are a joy to listen to!

    Hi! I've wanted to start welcoming neighbors with a little gift basket and our telephone numbers. The neighbors that moved in last winter did so right after we moved in and I just wasn't in that state of mind to do this. Making a practice going forward. I'm glad someone else finds that a blessing to others. Thank you for sharing.

    The new glasses look great! Thank you for your message today! I have always avoided social media, b/c every time I would look on it through someone else’s account, I always just felt awful afterwards. So I’ve kept to only looking at it once or twice a year to check up on people and that’s it. I don’t count RUclips, it’s educational/entertaining/motivational to me.

  • @jnjsanne5563
    @jnjsanne5563 Год назад

    Diana! I loved this! Amen amen amen on that cleaning our lens application! I love it! God is so gracious and we have need to extend so much grace to others. We attend a simple church of about 120 people and we love it bc it’s a small snippet of every tribe, every tongue, every nation in our little Body. People from Argentina, Venezuela, India, Dominica, China, Korea, Burundi (Africa) and Italy all mixed in with us. And we get the opportunity to love one another deeply from the heart. I also could say verbatim what you said about social media and the aspects of my flesh it ignites and sets aflame! I am so glad I have ditched it by the power of the Holy Spirit. Also I definitely laughed out loud at your “take a screen shot to text to your twin sister” line 🤣 as well as the getting her off the streets!
    Also me: talking myself out of dropping by someone’s home to show them kindness. I get it!! Hope that went well and better than last time…those type of encounters don’t help my bravery to love my neighbor unannounced.

    Your “illustrations” are always spot on. This really touched me.
    I was raised in an abusive home. There were many prejudices shown that I unknowingly took on. Many have fallen away as I became a Christian and grew in Jesus. There is more work for the Holy Spirit to do. ❤ Thank you.

    Your eyes prefer to go without glasses and it does strengthen the muscles and improve vision.
    I live in my childhood home now, the last time the neighbors on either property line changed was when I was about 11 and again a year or so later! The backyard neighbors changed while I was out raising my kids, I have said hello over the property line once? The neighbor and one of my adult sons were chatting about apple trees. :)

    Light also activates our pineal gland, when the pineal gland is activated, it can lead to a heightened sense of intuition, clarity of thought, and an increased awareness of one’s surroundings and out of thinking, worrying, judging, old stories). I find breathwork and kundalini yoga (or yoga, quigong etc. .... everything that links movement and breath and gets you out of thinking has great benefits for your mental, emotional and physical health) very helpful to get out of my narrow mindedness and into clarity, unity, trust, connection and love.

    LOL. I use the corner of my shirt to clean my glasses, too, & I always wear 100% cotton clothes; so, as long as my shirt is clean, it doesn't scratch my lenses. Thank you for this message. It's so relevant to me in this moment as my adult son chooses always to focus his vision on the darkest spot in the lives of everyone he encounters, especially me. It fills my heart with sorrow because there is no light in him. Prayer is everything I can do to influence a positive change in his vision & in his life. Meanwhile, I must keep my distance to protect my spirit. I'm so grateful for people like you who speak light into the lives of others.

    Beautiful message - thank you! I love the glasses analogy. Just as a side note I’ve been told that pregnancy and breastfeeding can change your eyesight and you should try and get your eyes tested when your hormones are all settled. Tough to do when you’re onto your 4th pregnancy though! I live in France though so perhaps advice differs. You’re a real blessing Diana. I’m so grateful for your Diana-ness.

    Firstly can I say I LOVE your new glasses! They suit your colouring SO WELL and are soft and feminine while also being super trendy. Nailed it! 😍
    Also, we have a new neighbour in our apartment building and they have kids same age as ours. I have been avoiding giving them a welcome gift because I don’t have time to bake and I didn’t feel like store bought had the same effect. For some reason it never occurred to me to give chocolates! Haha. Thanks for the idea and the nudge to just do it!! :)

    Another wonderful video Diana. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I will work on all these things. I feel like with prejudice as well as jealousy, we never know the whole story of that person's life. We only see the highlights, or maybe a moment where they made a mistake shown on social media. The older I get the more forgiving I feel I have become and as far as comparison and envy just try to be the best version of myself. I do love to have mentors and inspiration from wonderful women like you and Dawn. Thanks again. Blessings on your baby boy! I can't wait to see pictures. I have an October birthday. Best month ever!❤🍂🍁🎃
