Follow-up Stories to Encourage Your Heart:

If you missed my heart-warming, encouraging story about The Bosch Miracle last week you can read it here:

Bosch Miracle Story

My in box was filled with lots of follow-up comments I thought would continue to encourage you to keep on keeping on in the high calling of homemaking.  Sometimes we just get stuck in our ruts, or get discouraged, so read on if you need to be encouraged today.

Follow-up Stories from the Bosch Miracle Story:

  • My mom really needed a vehicle as she had to retire hers because it would no longer pass smog here in Ca.  My husband had done some remodeling for a lady he works with and she mentioned getting rid of their van.  Long story short he did a days worth of work at her house in exchange for a van for my mom. We surprised her on Christmas. She said it was the best present she’d ever received. God is good!  Lisa W.

  • Hi Marilyn, I haven’t bought anything from you but have loved your site and learned how to sprout wheat and love your Whole wheat bread recipe.

    I bought a new Bosch mixer with attachments in 1981-82  when my daughter was 7 in So. Calif. At that time I bought a grain mill that lasted until 2 years ago when I bought a Magic Mill I bought here in Colorado Springs.  I have had it repaired, cleaned out one time about 25 years ago.  and it still works great.

    I make 5 loaves of sprouted wheat.  I am disabled from Polio as a child and in an Electric Wheelchair, but with my husband’s help I can still make my bread and bag and freeze it for the month.    Just wanted to let you know that these old Bosch’s are still going strong.  Linda T.

  • I wanted to thank you for sharing the Bosch Miracle story with your readers.  We are still doing OK, as we are savers and have reserve  It is encouraging to hear stories like this.Blessings, Bev W.

  • Here’s my story…About 10 years ago, my husband was out of work too and we weren’t able to afford a mill AND a Bosch. I bought the mill and decided I could make the bread by hand until we could afford a Bosch. After attending a class on how to use grinders and mills, the teacher and owner of the business called me one day and said the Lord had told her to give me her demonstrator Bosch.

  • She was getting a new one to demonstrate with. Needless to say, I was thrilled and thankful!! I remember the first day making the bread with my new Bosch, I was so excited! I’m still using the same Bosch 10 years later. Every time I use it, I try to remember to say a prayer for the dear woman who gave it to me.  I have been blessed so many times over the years through a woman who responded to God’s prompting.

  • I have been wanting a Bosch for several years now.  I was able to get my grain mill and love it. It has been a blessing especially with dealing with my son’s food allergies to wheat.  I have tried to save up for my Bosch several times, but wouldn’t you know every time I get a little saved, we need the money somewhere else. There are many good christian wives and mothers getting on without one as we speak and many times in worse circumstances than my own.  If they can do it with the Lord’s gracious help then so can I.  Again I want to thank you for such an encouraging story.  I do hope one day to have my very own Bosch, but if the Lord’s answer for me is “no”, I also hope to have a sweet attitude/spirit about it.

    I am so thankful that you have shared these wonderful heartfelt stories with us. It continues to give me hope. I know that when the time is right God will lead us to all of our needs and desiers. I have been making our families bread, but thought a bread machine and with store bought fours. We are being led more and more in the direction to step away from store bought flour and start grinding grains. As with every one, money is tight. I have faith in knowing that one day soon I will come across a Nutrimill and a Bosch Mixer that our family can afford. Until then I will continue to make bread for my wonder husband and 4 precious boys the best I can, and place our needs in the Lords hands. Thank you again for the breathe of fresh air and all that you do. May God continue to Bless you and your Family.
