A Beautiful Life

2/28/2022

As winter winds down here at the Homestead, we are looking forward to spring. It is beautiful here when spring rolls around. Seeing everything come alive again is amazing. Getting ready for growing season is always exciting!

Lately I've been doing a lot of reflection on life. For the past few years I have had such contentment and peace that it is hard to explain. God has given me the desires of my heart. I have a beautiful marriage and lots of children. 

As some of you know, almost 10 years ago we had decided to get some land and live a more simpler life. We wanted to produce a lot of our own food, work the land and raise a bunch of animals. The Lord miraculously provided our property that we have. We moved to our Homestead and started out with pretty much nothing. 

Fast forward to today and it has been an amazing ride. To see how the Good Lord has provided everything we needed and given us so much. It is from His hand. We owe it all to Him. What an awesome God we serve!

One of the things we wanted to commit to this year is to give more of ourselves to help others. We see a lot of hurting people out there and want to give, both financially and of our time, to others. This life is all about serving not being served. The Bible says in Acts 20:35:

 I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'

Those words of Jesus ring true. Giving is such a blessing. 

Below is our new channel trailer for 2022. I'm thankful for my friend Brandon for letting me use his amazing music for our video. Check out his Facebook page here. Great worship music. 

We thank the Most High God for this beautiful life he has given us. If you're reading this, seek after Him. Leave this world behind. Get out of the rat race and seek the simple things in life. Enjoy the land. There is a peace that surpasses all understanding. A peace that can only be found in Jesus. 

Thanks for following us on our journey! Check out our new channel trailer below and God bless! -Steve

Ephesians 3:20-21

20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
