God is SO GOOD! I requested prayer for my son-in-law who was in kidney failure, on dialysis, and needed a kidney transplant. He miraculously received a kidney and is doing very well. He has his life back and we are so thankful to The Father Who is absolutely good! Thank you, prayer warriors, for your prayers.
Heather, I feel very lost for so many reasons. In the new year I need to fix me.. I have to pray more, love more, worry less and find the person I use to be. I ask for this group to pray for me. Happy New Year to everyone.
We have been lead to return to our hometown to be near our daughter because of my husband’s illness. Please pray for us to sale our house in Florida. It has been slow and we stay anxious and sad that it is taking so long. May we rest in the Lord. Pray for my husband that he finds his joy. It is hard when you have a debilitating illness. Thank you so much for your channel and your willingness to follow the Lord. We our *.75 and 77. Pray for peace and comfort. I love you and pray for you and your family.
Heather, I believe your right with the price of food going up . To stretch and use what you have even with a half pound of meat . I love that goal with gaining 7 grandchildren in my house ive been working with figuring it out and save for the next meal . God bless you and your family Happy New Years ! May we all focus on what God wants us to do !
I had about the same thing, teeth wise, as you, but have courage. It took 2 and a half years to get my implants and new teeth, but when my dentist placed them, they were just like my originals, God gave me, I can eat anything, but most of all I enjoy smiling.
I have a praise the Lord!!! I asked for prayers for my great-grandson many times over the past several years. He was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma at the age of one year old. He is now 4 years old. He had his scans at the beginning of December. His scans came back CLEAN!!! THANK YOU LORD!!! He doesn’t have to have scans again until next year at this time. If those scans come back clean, he will not have to have anymore scans!!! I’m asking for prayers that those scans come back clean. In Jesus name. Amen. 🙏🏻
Heather, I loved and appreciated the story with your dad using the leftover pizza in an omelette! I can relate to using up leftovers but this one is going in the vault! Thanks for sharing! ❤
HEATHER PLEASE PRAY FOR ME IVE BEEN SICK FOR 15 YEARS WITH A BACTERIA I FECTION I LIVE UP IN CHEBOGAN MI IM EXCITED ABOUT WATCHING YOU CAN WOULD LOVE TO LEARN HOW TO DO CANNING IM SICK ALOT A D NEED A MIRACLE HEALING AS DOCTOR'S CANT DO MUCH
Heather can you pray for my granddaughters niece Chloe.? Chloe will be 3 in April and has been so sick. They found out today she has type 1 diabetes. Poor baby! Thank You Jesus for guiding her Dr to the cause of her illness. In the name if Jesus. Amen💜
Oh Heather! I have watched you bloom into a beautiful follower & servant for Jesus as I have spent the same last few years growing further from Him 😢Please i need to get back 💯 to the Lord and fuller AGAIN surrender. Thank you 🙏 ❤
Since your first house I remember you had a need to stockpile the pantry for your family, I know that was God speaking to you and knew what was coming. ❤
Need prayer, and praises of his provision and wisdom Nov and Dec been different. Mom died 11/28. 97 yr Alzheimer's Dec was funeral, and 2 wks later I lost my income of SSI With all of this my anxiety has been rough on my body.
I'd love some" refurbished leftovers" videos. With just me and my husband, it's hard to not eat the same thing 3 days in a row. Yuck! I must say, being 66 yrs old and as tech savvy as a dust bunny, I had no idea hashtags had a purpose!😂 Also, it may be time for me to learn canning. You are very inspiring, Heather! ❤
I was always a baker, I never liked to cook. But I did. Now being retired, and learning from your channel and many other homesteader channels, I have loved to bake bread, rolls, yogurt, different recipes of food for dinners, etc. Once you learn the recipes, you get a mindset of "oh I need to get this from the store to I can make that, I already have the ingredients paid for, just make it." Meal prep has been so awesome, I have a freezer where I keep foods that I have meal prepped in deli containers. So nice to just go and grab spaghetti sauce, or chicken soup, premade seasoned hamburgers etc. Now when it gets low, I want to fill it up again. I even taught myself how to garden last year. Now mind you, I'm a custom cake decorator and chocolatier so learning a new hobby has been so rewarding. Thank you for all you share. Big hugs.
oh this made my entire day!!!! So glad this channel is edifying to you in some way.....God bless and keep going and doing all the things that bring your heart joy!
I agree on not doing the pantry challenge. And also cutting back a little. I feel as you do about stocking the shelf, not depleting it. An intuition for sure.
Thank You God fir bringing us Heather. Please pray for our healing? All my family and friends? Please help my body get stronger for my next surgery in March of 24? I have so many body parts that are in need of healing. We give You thanks and speak praises of your name and ask these things in the Name of Jesus. Amen 💜
So glad to hear and see you getting back to canning. I have learned so much from your videos. And you make the best apple pie filling. I have enjoyed everything that you have ever canned with us. Thank you for sharing. You are always such a blessing.
I thank you for all the wisdom you share , I wasn't going to make any resolutions but you awoke in me a need to do better! With a thankful heart on to the Lord! I need prayers for my short comings....but what great miracles await! Bring on 2024!
I love you saying “buckle up”, it reminds me of the Biblical phrase “gird up your loins” ie be ready for action. May the Lord restore us and heal us this coming year and may we learn to be more like the Proverbs 31 woman.
hahaha Katy!!!! I laughed out loud! I like gird up your loins, much better! hahahaha Amen Amen! Let us keep our hands busy doing the Lord's work on this side of heaven!!!!!
Goals for 2024: Spend a thoughtful hour each day in prayer and study, make more meals from scratch, canning maple syrup (water bath canning)will work on this in January 2024) get the sewing machine out and spend some time making little girls dresses for an orphanage. I have many more things I would like to do! Will wait and see how much time I have... Pray for my husband and myself, he has Parkinson's and I am his caregiver, Lord I need strength and patience. Many blessings to you all....
Happy New Year, Heather. So many of my family are sick and having a hard time getting better.My daddy needs prayers. He had a major stroke 26 years ago that God healed him from. He still had some after symptoms like memory loss, but now he's having mini strokes while he sleeps, and blood clots are hitting his brain. He has lost most of his vision from something pushing on that part of his brain, and his mobility is bad. He falls all the time. Love you my sister.
I agree heather, I am stocking and stretching everything. God Bless You ❤ I don't normally ask for prayers but if you can pray for my middle son I would appreciate it. He had surgery last week and now he has a blood clot in his arm and it is very painful. He went to the hospital and they sent him home and told him to take aspirin.
Lord have mercy on Mindy’s son…..Father God, we ask you for miraculous healing. Let him be a beacon to your mercy and glory and to your miracles, Father!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 In Jesus Might and Holy name I pray, Amen!!!!! Please keep me posted on how he is doing, Mama!
YES!!!!! I heard someone say "how many meals can you make with your pantry in 60 days?" and in my head I said, I know how many.... NOT ENOUGH! hahaha I swear I get so stressed out with the thought of anyone living off their pantry and not replenishing it for 30-60 days. Not only does it dwindle your storehouse, but it will cost more money just to replenish what you used. the Bible tells us to be good stewards.... Proverbs 6:6-11 6 Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! 7 It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, 8 yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. 9 How long will you lie there, you sluggard? When will you get up from your sleep? 10 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest- 11 and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.
God led me to this. I’m with you 100%, and am excited to focus on our pantry together. Thank you for all you do, especially keeping our eyes turned to the Father. ♥️
Can't wait for the Jarred up January. I have a list of things I want to can. As you said we have to lean more on each other. The upcoming year is going to be difficult. We need to make sure we prepare a joyful pantry to survive was coming down the pipe. Not in fear but in confidence with the Lord
Im not knocking any super fun learning curves we can be in but my heart is on board 100% with preparing my home for something anything that could happen. Watching the channels have fun and stretch to only eat out of their pantry is where I will be this time! Love all of these channels! Stay safe and warm!
What a beautiful message Heather!!! I've been trying to wrap my head around what I was feeling towards my pantry. You nailed it!! 2024 is all about finding my way back to God and avoiding the anger that social media makes rise within me! Thank you for giving me clarity. Please pray for me that I find as deep a connection to my father that you have now. I've felt abandoned for so long since my parents passed 10 years ago. I hear his calling. ❤❤❤❤ Feeding my family has always been a priority, I just never knew why until now.
Your history lesson got me thinking. The last time a name was removed from the ballot was 1964, Lyndon Johnson. The state was Alabama. Honest Abe had it happen also(as you pointed out) Thank you for broaching the subject!❄️🤍❄️
THANK YOUUUUUUU!!!!! This will be a fun rabbit hole to deep dive into with the kids on social studies and history! Even though its off topic 😆👍🏼 We will be looking into that! How fun! Thank youuuuu!!!!!!! Man, I love you guys so much! Always have my back!!!!!😆👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💋
Hi Heather. Thank you for praying with all of us. It came at a perfect time for me. I am in need of prayers for my family. So many issues and turmoil. Plus I’m having health issues with diabetes, gum issues, and back issues. I thank you for prayer. I am praying for you and your family as well. God bless you.
My brother-in-law was in a bad accident more than 20 years ago when someone broadsided him. He had a TBI as well, and was in a coma and intubated for almost 30 days. Many times they did not know if he would make it or what his life would be like afterwards. There are some residual effects, but the progress he made In the years before his age caught up with him, was only due to God’s grace. I pray that you continue to see the kind of improvement that he did. It was truly amazing.
Thank you for your prayers. Thank you for being open,positive and and excepting of all. You definitely have a calming effect thank you.who knew talking about your pantry and what it means to you the history the turmoil going on in our country/ world the prayers you smile brought me to feel uplifted and ready for busy hands😀
Heather, I adore you and pray for your full recovery. You taught me how to preserve food and canning. Thank you so much. (As an aside, the four-year-long Civil War ended the week before Lincoln's assassination. Not the other way around. )
God truly has mercy on his people, his gentle ways of having you get prepared and not showing us the immediate future of trauma and only has us see the future when we meet him in heaven.
Thank You for sharing your pantry with us its inspiring me! I continue to try to build mine up, I have SO MANY holes, I pray the Lord will make a way to do just that. God bless each and everyone in the comments section, with His peace, that passes ALL UNDERSTANDING and comfort of His promise of provision, as we wait for His return !!! 💕🙏🏻
You are looking wonderful dear Heather! I pray for you and your family to have a blessed, healthy, and peaceful New Year. It's wonderful that you have a positive goal for the dark,cold winter months. I fell off the canning bandwagon after my husband passed but I made canned Apple butter as gifts for my dear neighbors and fell in love with canning again! Back in the game!! Will be canning again this winter. Such a satisfying endeavor. I wish you all the best, always in my prayers, and thanks for your encouragement🌻🌻🌻🌻
I think we all go through those stages.... I didn't know if I would ever can again. I am so sorry about the loss of your beloved. It is indescribable, the grief. You feel so lost and everything reminds you of him. I am glad you found the joy in it once again. Happy New Year, Sis..... so much love to you!
Would love to see the leftover redo. My husband is really bad at eating leftovers but he has a habit of making too much food. I too hate seeing food get thrown away. A lot of blood, sweat and tears goes into our pantry's and to see any of it wasted is heart breaking. Now a days every penny has to stretch.
You are a true follower of Christ you have been blessed with his grace and love to share with others may God watch over you and your beautiful family and give you many more blessings. Love your content.
Always remember.....criminal not candidate. "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth." Bless you in the new year.
One of my favorite Bible verses is Psalm 90:17- " And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands for us; yes establish the work of our hands." God Bless us all as we enter the New Year, as we prepare our hearts and our homes for what lies ahead. God knows, and He goes before us, and He is our rear guard. ❤
Happy New Year! Blessings from Pennsylvania. I am so excited to see what you do for January. Pen and paper ready to learn. Thank you and God bless you!
Heather I so value you and this community. This video is a blessing. You have helped me more than you’ll ever know. I’ve needed your strength and support and prayers and you’ve been there. I have such love and admiration for you and your family and this community and I just wanted to pop on here and send you such good wishes and love for the coming year. God bless.
You Hang in there. You Don't give up. You Keep pushing. You Keep fighting! You Stay strong. You Never give up. God Bless You Heather Always And Your Family, Wishing You A Blessed New Year, Thank You For Sharing Your Beautiful Words, Wendy
I some times put lentils in my chili. I need to can a lot of beans, too. My prayer is to all of us to have a Happy New Year with Jesus Christ in our lives.
I'm asking for prayer for my 37 year old son that has an aquired brain injury that was caused by a large hemorrhagic stroke. Pray for complete healing and restoration of his memory so he is able to continue to raise his two young boys as a single father. So he can return to his job at the Christian school.
I lost my job in the summer, while my husband and I were starting to build our home. We're trying to finish building before our baby comes and money is very tight and now I have medical complications, prayers would be so welcomed, thank you and may God bless everyone here ❤
You are so precious & full of inspiration. Your faith is most admirable & sincere. I am in awe of your sweet gentle spirit in the face of such heat ache, sorrow & suffering. The light of Christ Jesus radiates from you. God our Father bless you and yours in abundance in 2024.Buckle up buttercup 🌼let’s do this! 💓
Heather, thank you for praying for us and for our pantries. God has been so wonderful to us and our pantry building this year. I was so worried about where the $$ was going to come from to purchase the items needed but God is ALWAYS on time. I just come to surrender my stress and worry and as soon as I did that God provided everything we needed to restock our tomato products and we have enough beans to restock that as well. I don't only can for my little family but I also can for my youngest son's family, my sister and brother. They don't can and they need my help. So keep those Prayers going for our pantry as we not only stock ours but my children and siblings pantries as well. I will be in Prayer for you, your family and your pantry. I wish we lived closer together because sister I'd be canning for you as well. God Bless you sweet sister in Christ. Thank you much much!!💝🙏🙏🙏 PS) I'm also almost 62 years young and try to grow a lot of my veggies. It isn't easy at my age with some limitations i have on my health. BUT GOD IS SO GOOD TO ME as He keeps His string hands on me as I grow and work the gardens. Thank you sweet Jesus!!🙏💝🙏
Thank you, Heather! Your prayer has done my ❤ good tonight. My prayers always feel so weak and simple. I haven't been able to pray lately. Perhaps it's due to me struggling with a chest cold for 2 months. It doesn't want to go away. I'm grateful for you! Thank you for what you do to help others! 💕
Amen! I believe we could all use some restoration from the Lord in 2024. We'll be converting our family room into a food pantry. The other half is already a seed starting station since 2020. We have a living room, so our family room will be better utilized as a pantry.
Honestly, I have similar problems with saying the wrong word or blanking. I just thought I was getting old. Nope, I had a stroke. God took care of me, though. I have very little affected. You are so inspiring and God blessed! . ❤
Thank you so much for sharing your journey Heather! I found out about you from Whippoorwill Hollow and I became connected w Jenny and Kyle thru you! Today is Jenny’s memorial service. I’m praying for each family unit. From Arkansas to Michigan to California to Washington state (where I live)… prayers go forth! Restoration thru repentance has been the focus the Lord has given me for next year 🙏🙏❤️❤️
Heather I Love this video and your prayer videos and so excited for jar it January and pantry videos. My small pantry saved us when I had cancer in 2017-18 and was out of work for months and again during covid. We just moved to a one level house on 3 acres to age in place and have a tiny food closet so am having to start over and what a pain it’s been. There is an unfinished basement so working on a small area there for pantry. I need ideas. Still trying to sell our house in town. Stressful. Praying for you and the kids still.I love you sister in Christ.
I'd just like some good vibes.. positive thoughts and a prayer or two for myself and my son. Been a rough time lately for us . Thank you. Heather..the tests done on me a few weeks back were negative for breast cancer. Just needing to keep an eye on the lumps.❤
Redressing is Vital for what is coming! Thank you for listening to what the Lord is placing on your spirit! the Lord is using you to help His Children and I love watching my sister in Christ obey! Keep running the race strong YOU GOT THIS and I am here for it!
My sweet Heather, what an inspiration you are. I canned when I was a new mom. Many years have passed, I'm now a 68 year old grandmother. This past year I purchased a Nesco canner. I am slowly 4 quarts at a time building my pantry. I want to serve others and by preparing food I believe I can take care of myself and others. I wish I could come join you in your journey to provide for your family. I know you have inspired me to make important changes that will bring blessings. Continue to be here and we can all be able to serve one another. You are a great example to your children and to those who follow your channel.
You always put a smile on my face. You talked a lot of wisdom here. I am looking forward to your canning videos. I rent a room and help an older lady so I don't have a pantry. I do have some plastic bins where I store dry and canned goods. And 2024 will be one of those years where our pantry or plastic bins of food will come in handy. Take care and thanks for another encouraging prayer circle friday!
I love how you just keep so positive and keep going for your wonderful family you are for sure an inspiration !!! I hope if I go through what you have been through I pray I handle it as well as you have 🙏 I love Anna's channel !! I will be watching. You have the kindest heart and soul 💕🙏 Bless you sweet lady
Great video Heather, I have been working on my pantry these past 3 years, we don't know what the new year will bring but I feel an urgency to keep stocking up. Your pantry is amazing!!!
