I can so relate. I used to get the winter blues and cabin fever. But now that I've slowed down and given my life over to Christ, I embrace the gift of this quiet season and all the warmth and cozy it brings. 🔥

Oh man when you started talking about the “fake” things of life…… YES to freedom from that

Wish I could find a friend like you. I don’t like the “fast paced” life. Sometimes I feel like I don’t really fit in. Thank you for your lovely vlogs😊

A simple life is what I dreamed of my entire working life. We now have it. We spent 15 years building a rural homestead 3 hours from home after the ‘08 crash. Got ducks in a row and left suburbia. Best thing we ever did.

Nothing replaces a sweet life in the woods, surrounded by our mother earth. Beautiful filming...

The dark quiet of winter is far more appealing to me in my later years. This has been a very hard year health wise; I lost my sister who lived with me, my husband had a difficult surgery resulting in a stroke and loss of half his vision, and I was unwell too. But through it all our Lord was with us, and our relationship with him and our marriage deepened and enriched. This winter will be quiet and lovely and lit by His light. Come Lord Jesus.

Thankyou Lea for another lovely vlog. I think covid and the increasingly unsettled world has show a lot of people how much of our lives were fake, how we need to be grateful for so many small genuine things and return to authentic simple living.

Your morning videos help calm my morning anxiety. Thank you, sister Lea. Your content is always soothing to the soul.

I LOVE your two gorgeous dogs. I love being in my home, and being thankful for all I have. I have become a recluse, and only go out of my rural home to walk my dog, or take rubbish to the end of the lane. I am happy doing that, and feel so much safer staying in my little world. xxx

I also live with my hubby and dogs on a mountain. I haven’t yet got it all together yet but with the grace of God I will learn enough to help make things easier. This time of year is both glorious and heartbreaking. I too suffered the loss of my brother and many others. Today is my birthday and I’m going to treat myself to a special night of pampering. Thank you for sharing. ♥️

I love winter , every aspect of it . I love fall and slowly gliding into the short days . Spring is soft and fresh . Summer is hard , the light is invasive, the heat can really push you down … but the water gives refreshing and coolness . 🤗

Beautifully said. I know exactly what you mean. Irving in the moment, dirty hands moving dirt, clean heart, clean conscience …all with God in every moment

Slow living is wonderful, Im 61 years old and have had a few small strokes,my health has slowed Me down and I now embrace My new situation, My Faith is Strong and I love My life today.😊

I’ve learned so much about appreciating each season for God’s purpose in it. I’ve always been opposite, and have loved winter and struggled with summer. There’s nothing like cozying up with a good book to sink into the season and be reminded of the everyday blessings. Beautiful video 🤎

Hi Leah I so love the way you interact with your doggies & the way you love the lord 🙏❤ Thank you

Thanks as always for your video. I have been subscribed for at least 2 years. I ask for your prayers as I just feel alone and overwhelmed. My son has been fighting addiction and right now he is in jail and looks like he will be for some time. I love the Lord with all I have and study God's Word everyday. I know that He is in control and that if my son is one of His elect, my son has his home in heaven. I do find peace in that truth. God is sovereign and in my deepest heart, I know I am never truly alone. I also know that God hears and answers prayers and I would appreciate prayers for my son and for me. God bless you and thanks.

I love so much when you include your husband in your videos. It is so sweet to see your relationship and how much he loves you. Your videos point me to Jesus so much. Thank you for sharing your life with people so far away. It must be so hard to feel like you live your life in front of people at times, but this is such an awesome ministry and inspires people like me to look to Jesus and enjoy each moment. You are a blessing for which I, at least, am eternally grateful.

I love all the Laura Ingalls Wilder books. Read them when I was a child, a teenager and then with my child! Those book's never get old. It definitely teaches you gratitude and so many more beautiful ways to live. ❤❤❤

I've also read The Longest Winter several times. We have it so easy these days, at least most of us do. I thank YHWH for all of our comforts.

So happy to be here. Our baby grandson was so sick this past week and Mama and Dada needed some help which praise the Lord I was able to provide. He is on the mend, again thank the Lord and I could come for a cozy, lovely visit. Happy Christmas to you, James, the pups and chickens. ❤

I remember reading that book to my 3rd granddaughter when I had custody of her for a year when she was 6. I read a lot of Laura's books to her that blessed year. She's almost 21 now..God bless y'all. Thank you, sister and brother 🙏💙🙏

Beautiful content Lea. Thank you😊❤️❤️❤️

As I’ve changed into my young adult years and given my life to Christ. I have longed for a friend like you. You truly are such a beautiful soul. God truly shines through you ❤

Dearest sister in the Lord...Your words ring so true..in my life also...and thank you...And may God ever bless this channel..You/James and all the sweet furboys...and chickens..birds and such.God is so good.Amen

From making homemade butter, to liver helps, to being the wife God wants me to be, you have helped me so much the past few years. Thank you so much, Lea!

How is it that I just now found your glorious channel? I bought into the narrative that the rich and glamorous life is the good life but it came up short. Yes, girl. We need to cultivate and fight for a slower and more thoughtful life. I'm really looking forward to this channel. God bless!

It’s good to see you and your husband doing everyday life together. So sweet the way he holds you.

I read The Long Winter every January. It’s one of my very favorites. 💙❄️

Fabulous positive more energy in filming with warm interaction with husband..so delightful! Love scriptures and music, cooking, chick's so pretty, well mannered pupps! Hearing more vocal between you and husband, and your solo.

Simply beautiful, now I need a fire going and a cup of tea...so relaxing and soothing watching your videos!! ❤❤Shalom

Amen, I love how you use the word cozy, I used to use that word all the time when my boys were little. I'm also staying cozy on a cool 60 degree rainy morning down south here in Austin.

I love this. So calming and peaceful

Lovely❤ thank you for this bit of Shalom this morning

Your chickens are such pretty patterns; I never noticed it before.

I pray the Lord blesses you and your husband 🙏🏼 what a beautiful example of a God centered marriage I can truly see the respect and love you both have for one another 🤗

Such a beautiful and relaxing video thank you for sharing your day 😊

May trinity God bless you i wish the holy spirit lights your souls i am orthodox greetings from Greece we have beautiful mountains here too ❤

Heart warming video as always. Thank you 🩷

What a Beautiful Life you and your Husband Lives!!!! God Bless

Your shawl is so pretty!

I get so much inspiration from your videos! Thank you for capturing the beauty of life, of this season, God bless you! 🤎

OMG, less than one minute into your video, and you locked me in at fake food, friends, happiness.. I can totally relate.

I live in California but my everbearing strawberries are STILL GIVING STRAWBERRIES!!! I grow basil outside in the Spring/Summer and inside in the Fall/Winter. But I love always having basil.

Your channel brings such delight, and I think of the ministry videos you used to make often. How blessed we are to share in the simple joys of the Lord even while far apart. God bless you and your family and animals.

I live a pretty simple life and often wonder what life might be like living differently bc life's so short .You inspire me a make me feel ok with living for the moment . Lately your u tube videos are the only ones I feel good watching . 😊 Happy holidays.

There’s such beauty in simplicity.

Honestly, I would love to see an office vlog. I understand if that side of your work isn’t something you want to share, but it would be interesting to see what goes into running your business. God bless you.

Good Morning. Your videos bring me so much peace and acceptance of myself , as I do not have many people in my life that find the lesser slower side of life of value. Thank You. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.❤️

Your beginning part is as if it was written about me! Thank you for putting words to something I have felt for a while but couldn't put to words!

Much love and warmth to you and your loved ones❤

Amen! That's what exactly I'm looking for to live like this. My husband and me we work in the ministry, non profit organization. Some day I'll sell our house ( we still paying) and move yo the mountains as expats in Sud America. God bless you. I love your dogs.

Hello 👋 My Dearest Friend Leah: I’m So Happy That I Ran Into Your Channel This Year. Your Videos Are So Beautiful And Relaxing. Thank You 🙏 Both For Making My Life So Peaceful. Wishing You And Your Family And Your 2 Beautiful Dogs 🐕: A MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄🎁 And A Wonderful New Year. Thank You Lord For Bringing Such A Special And Loving 🥰 Friend Into My Life.

❤ so wonderful ❤

Looking forward to watching. Merry Christmas to you and your family’🎄❄️❤️

Priscilla here! Thanks for allowing me to pop in. I always feel welcome!

Thank you Lea for all your heartwarming, cozy content. I appreciate all that you share on your journey of life as a Christian woman. You are such a lovely person. The warmest of Christmas blessings to you and James and the pups and chick's. ❤

Such well behaved pups!

So happy to stumble upon this video. Lots of food for thought and I appreciate your thoughts on slow living. I totally understand it. We need more of this.

What a lovely blessed couple you are❤

So lovely and cozy!

Wonderful, helpful video. Very similar to the life that Masae and I have at our Utah cabin over Palisade Lake. 2 malamute dogs we dogsled in the winter, 11 cats, a mountain full of wildlife who are our neighbors and friends, big garden with fresh food year-round, and daily hikes and runs in the mountains. The "real life." Grateful and fortunate. We now try to rescue my Afghan interpreters/military battle buddies, and as we bring them out we bring them here and they are getting a taste of that life as well.

Just beautiful ❤

There were so many parts to this video that I enjoyed, too many to list! It was beautiful, peaceful and I so appreciate that you make these videos .❤❤❤

To be a chicken in the little house household ....snacks tea, hugs 😂 ....glorious! I love it. 💕

So beautiful ❄️

I just received my Biblical Affirmations Journal today! I am so looking forward to starting it! ❤

Lovely Lea thanks for sharing your home with us 💙💙💙

Beautiful hens God bless🎉🎉🎉

How I wish God will bless you with children because your place is so nice to raise a child. Simple but full of life, peace and love.❤️🙏

I just love your videos. Thank you for sharing

Are you going to do any more podcast-type videos soon? I would enjoy hearing you teach on biblical marriage and being a wife

Relaxing and peaceful video. Love that verse in Amos 🙏🙂

I’m so happy to see your beautiful loving family and how The Lord has changed your life. It’s so inspiring in a way that I’m ready to start my own journey with God. I just want to like embrace life with God and never look back and enjoy every moment in the presence of The Almighty God Jesus Christ, amen. 🌻🌻🌻

Thank you very much!

You are such a lovely lady, wish you, your dog, amd the family nothing but the best

Thanks Lea for your beautiful video’s ! God bless you sister 💗

Beautiful ❤️

I wish I could express the level of peace I receive when watching your videos. I'm so grateful for it. Yes, life is hard & challenging, but when we're doing what the Lord wants, we can be filled with joy and His peace. Merry Christmas to you and James.

Blessings from Burden Lake, New York ❤

I can relate so much! ❤ I’ve just started enjoying a slow life and I feel so at peace so far.😊

Beautiful and mind relief video ,, thanks for sharing with us ❤👌💐

Your marriage is blessing the world. You seem to have a wonderful faith filled marriage.

That was so cute about zippy. That made me chuckle. I love watching you and your husband and critters. Have a happy new year ❤

Wow,!

Thank you for such a beautiful video. 🤍

I love slow and quiet life in the countryside too. Appreciating you, thank you, beautiful

Thanks!

Absolutely beautiful and insightful videos. I am so grateful for them🙏🏽

I wish You all the very best; in fact, You are already enjoying it, while experiencing the enrichment of silence, peace, amidst the nature, a gift by God that must be cherished with respect, curiosity, interest, tenderness and love for it all leads to fulfillment! Congratulations for Your courage, determination and self confidence! May God continue to bless You and everything You embrace today and always!

Thank you. Your messages are comforting and calming. I look forward to each mornings message.

thank you and your husband, the dogs and chickens for brightening up my days throughout this year that is passing.. some of those days had been in difficult times and just watching your videos helps bring me back to focus and on the LORD.. some months I like to save the videos to watch and I can watch a few in a row... I loved watching you and your husband have an embrace, its not forced for the video, its real love you both share and it shows in the videos... my daughter, she isnt with the LORD but she has seen miracles, her mother healing from damage of witchcraft and even tho she said don't talk religion, she tends to ask me questions which I will take any door into her heart to share his love.. one time she asked me, MUM, if they had to sacrifice animals for their sins, then why would they sin? ( we are weak and need his strength) and I was amazed when I was talking to her about creation, when Yahweh separated the light from the darkness, I asked her what she thought this meant? and she replied, thats easy, god separated Lucifer from the world, he's the darkness.. I think because she has seen miracles she knows in her heart he's real.. if someone is having issues or someone is sick, im the first person she comes too to pray for these people. its like a gift of joy hearing her ask me this.. she knows im a prayer warrior too. but id say to her, it has to be "let his will be done in whom we trust" I said to her its like praying for someone that has lung issues, I can pray for then but its their choice if they continue to smoke.. why would god heal them for them to continue with what causes their issue.. and seeing my son stop drinking was answering my constant prayer, he no longer consumes alcohol... when my daughter heard this, she looked at me and smiled, then later, she said to me alone, you prayed for this didnt you? I just smiled and hugged her.. no more words were needed.. so please keep praying for others because its real.. I think my prayers changed when I now place my armour on in Ephesians 6;10-18.. its not automatic, we need to pray for this and I believe it also helps protect our prayers... reading Daniel 10 showed me this... his prayer was held up and there was a fight in heaven for 21 days by the spiritual evils... I dont know why im sharing this but I do know more people need to understand prayer is your personal relationship in silence.. enjoy your winter and im enjoying our summer.. bless you all and show compassion, forgive and rejoice... no one is promised to no-one so enjoy the moments, stay conscious im mind.. ✨🥀🙏

I love your life

So peaceful, so beautiful 😍 😊❤
