I love this so much! This reminds me of a word the Lord gave me a couple of years ago. I never invited anyone to my home because I was so self conscious about it not being picture prefect. The Lord told me to invite women in anyway so they can see that it's okay to not be perfect. It was so freeing! This fall I'll be opening my home to a women's discipleship group.
I'm legitimately so happy for you, that you have reached this moment of revelation. The trappings that we fall into, that we strive for, when we finally get off that crazy train to live in our authenticity, it's so freeing. It took me moving into my 40s, family deaths and children's neuro-developmental diagnoses to proclaim that enough is enough. Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us and helping to uplift when we need it.
This is such a sweet moment to experience with you! I'm also a homeschool mama, a few years behind you with my oldest going into 7th. I have followed you for years, and I feel so much of what you're talking about this month. I'm a recovering perfectionist as well - wanting to do all the things. I'm also burned out from trying so hard, you know? I want to make life better, for my own sake as much as my kids. Thank you for this gift of perspective.
Congratulations on selling your house. I don't go to a church either. I do the TV and my boys and I read the Bible. I'm so proud of you for speaking to all those people. That would make me nervous. I can't wait for your house up date. Thanks for all you do angel ❤
I love how God moves His people in similar ways. I came on to watch something of value, something good and your channel came to mind. I clicked on this video and am so glad I did. I just uploaded my own video about not striving. It looks different for me. Mine is not resting rather than perfection per se. Thank you for posting. I needed to hear someone else going through something similar. Blessings to you!
I don't go to church either. My dad always told me growing up...God is in the great outdoors also. He is anywhere we want to know Him.
Yes! Not even kidding...my BEST prayer time happens when I'm kayaking ( no distractions!) Even get awesome prayer time while I'm racing it!😁
Thank you, Jamie! ❤️
I actually do better with shorter notice, too, lol! Having too many things on the calendar makes me nervous!
Oh my goodness! You are such a beautiful soul! I knew it from the first time I met you. Your comments about stripping perfection is so true! You have me in tears, Good Tears! The old must die, so the new can live! Love you beautiful!
Thanks for sharing your heart with us! We don't have a physical church either. We also do online, and I love God just as much as the people that do go. ❤ Today I'm struggling to decide whether or not we should go back to our homeschool co op next fall, so if you could please pray for guidance for me? I'm also slowly reading the whole Bible too!😁
You should try Bible in a Year with Fr. Mike Schmitz! He makes it so much more palatable and ties things together.
I’ve missed you and Christy!!! Love all of your content!
Awwww, thank you friend! 🤗💓
Let me be that “one person”….. thanks for sharing. We have had so many families want to come over and because our home is not 100% perfect we always “have plans” 🤦♀️😩 I am about to just open up my imperfect home and spread love and joy through what we have been blessed with. A farm with a ton of room to just fellowship, spread Gods love, and eat!!! 🎉 thanks so very much
I love the new videos you are doing. I love hearing the authenticity and depth of your heart. It’s hard to see or hear the real person in today’s social media era. Congratulations on selling your home and that the Lord keeps pouring into you and that you keep sharing with us all. 💗
Perfection is such a struggle in my life. I absolutely adore your heart! I loved your podcast with Christy!!
I love the "least professional" chatty videos! They're my favorite :) Congrats on selling your home!! 🥳 As always, you speak to my heart in ways I know God is trying to reach me. ❤️ Thank you for sharing your heart!
So good. Thank you! Christ is perfect, but an illusion for the rest of us. There's so much freedom in letting that illusion go. I can't seem to relate as well to picture-perfect appearances on YT or anywhere else really. I quit FB years ago because it was hard not to feel like a complete failure in so many ways, comparing myself, and actually feeling angry about not getting more "likes" than "them" just so I felt more perfect. Ugh. Such an ungodly perspective I had. The thing is, you know they have struggles like we do, everyone does, but it is so refreshing and encouraging to see people for who they really are and where they are truly at, especially Christians. There seems to be this false idea that if your life isn't going just awesome or perfect that God isn't truly blessing you. Not to sound cliche, but you nailed it when you talked about how it's through the mess that we often experience the nearness and love of God in ways we've never known. Mess is BLEST. 😂😂 Ok, that line was corny but you know what I mean. 😊
I'm a few minutes into this video and can't believe you are speaking directly to my heart. I feel the same way. I am done with perfection and watching perfectly edited videos while some of those people are broken inside. It's time to show up just the way we are, and allow God to do the rest. Thank you so much for taking the time to speak to us so much truth. God bless you and your beautiful family 🙏
Thank you for speaking open heartedly again. I love the direction god is taking you in and looking forward to chatty videos. I am so glad to hear you say you don't go to church and its just a building. This just took so much off my shoulders as you have opened my eyes as I don't think anyone has wver told me that before. I struggle going to church with three boys ages 8, 6 and 17 months as they are wild animals who can't sit still that long. I don't have a spport person to help me juggle that kind of chaos ( and I wouldn't change it for the world to have my kiddos any differently at that age). Sounds like I'm making excuses to not go to church but mentally and physically I can't bring myself to go in this season in my life. It was great 4 years ago when I had two kids and they were little but not today.... I also struggle reading the bible and am trying so hard to get in the word daily. I am an awful juggler with life and trying to juggle young kiddos. As you know its exhausting with 3 boys who don't stop moving, constantly arguing and competitive with each other😢. I keep saying it just a phase, I hope! I love your videos and how you pour your heart out to us as I feel you in each video I watch ❤. Thank you for being here and helping me along the way. You also talk about perfection which I am not. Especially when it comes to presentation of the house BUT this always bothers me because I can't seem to catch up/maintain and make things look or stay clean/organized that I need to stop letting it bother me and to except the fact our house is lived in especially with three boys ❤. You have me looking at life and things differently, thank you!
Hi there,
I miss you! It’s Lisa Bondy. So glad u r still going strong and growing in Jesus!🙏💕
Thank you for this video! I’ve been a subscriber of yours for some time . I enjoy the raw videos. I am guilty of feeling the perfectionism about everything, also doesn’t help that I have OCD lol. I’m not a people pleaser but do get caught up in wanting to be for some reason.🤷🏼♀️ I’ve always been that person that doesn’t care what people think but with certain circumstances or people I do. It drives me crazy. I am a Christian but don’t go to an actual church. I use to then it grew bigger, which is awesome and I know what God wants but makes me feel not as connected to the church body, if that makes sense. I always feel a little guilty about not attending in person but then I remember this.- “When two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.” Matthew 18:20. So we watch online and I study bible with my boys at home. I am always learning with them and enjoy the time together.
I don’t know about anyone else but I needed this conversation!
Yes, I loved the podcast and totally want more!
We absolutely LOVED that time together! We are both in very different seasons right now but maybe we can make it happen again! The Lord's timing...right?! ❤️🙏
I listen to your podcast, I have been here for about 4 years maybe a little longer
Man, wish I was your neighbor! ❤ we would totally jive.
I wish I could txt u personally or email..I have no social media so I could never follow u on insta or anything...but you talking about Denison Math...my daughter loves it!!! Math was/is such a struggle & its been a blessing...I cant get over this whole video u r doing..blessing upon blessing..God is so Good!!💕 press on til the whole world hears...battle buddy...hand in hand together ❤️
Hey friend! You can absolutely email me anytime! justsimplylivingit@gmail.com
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was here but not sure if I listened
Random! I don’t have IG so I thought I’d ask here… do u really need the parent guide w life skills gather round? I really want my kids to do this, but man.. our curriculum is adding up!!!! & I’m actually simplifying this year! ☝🏻 Simplifying doesn’t Necessarily mean cheaper 😅 Thought I could Cut corners without the parent guide… never used Gather Round, although I’ve eye-balled it for years!! I am really looking forward to Life Skills! Ty!! Happy Monday ☕️🧡
Hey friend! I have found with Gather Round ..yes, the teacher's guide has all the info. It really is a piece you need. We just do digital versions here and print what we need at home. ❤️
@@SimplyLivingIt ty👏 that’s what I needed to know!!!
Whatever you do work it at it with all your heart as working for the Lord, not for men.. colossians 3:23
You mentioned a good book for boys, for building character, spiritual growth, several vlogs ago. I can’t find where it was, do you recall what that might have been? I am looking for something that my husband can go through with my boys.
💗
I've wondered about the new book, The Gift of Limitations by Sara Hagerty?
Ohhh, I need to look that up! ❤️
How about if there's something out of order, I just let it all go? I need to get out of the clutter and disorder of my home. I'm coming out of a really hard season... we are kind of still in it.
I saw that in production of amare they use soy...I know soy is not healthy....do you know anything about this? Also it states natural flavors....which could mean anything? I'm skeptical....I love your enthusiasm.....but cautious 😮
Love your message!
I agree with so much here & have learned to not be a perfectionist just to please people.
Just learning to please God & our families is enough. There will always be haters & critics even if we do & say the right things.
I also wanted to suggest a podcast/ youtube videos that have helped us within the past year or 2 so much with under scripture.
FOCUS PRESS
AND..... WORLD VIDEO BIBLE SCHOOL.
focus press does very well & world video bible school is very helpful, but be a little cautious on just a couple of things... These videos will help u understand scripture well & focus press goes in depth well too.
Just suggesting these incase you need any answers to any questions.
Keep speaking out momma! You're awesome & i have learned so much from you to simplify things as well! Thanks for all you do! Please consider the podcast/videos i suggested for if u need any more bible knowledge. 💗
