Joshua 1:9

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you may go. Joshua 1:9

Making it Simple

"We're selling EVERYTHING". That was my response when people asked what we were doing with all our stuff. Just take it all. And the more you take the less I have to mess with. People have mentioned how hard it must be to be selling or giving away all our things we've collected over the last few years. And honestly, it's been wonderful! I felt like every little thing was a weight on my shoulders. Something to clean, something to dust, something to wash, something to fold, something to store somewhere. I was/am so OVER stuff. It was so overwhelming and I felt like all I ever did was clean up after "stuff". So now, I sit here, looking at a mantle that used to have 20 pictures on it and now has 1. There is now less to get out which means less to clean up. And with the "less stuff" I now have freedom. Freedom to spend more time doing the things I really want to do. It's blissfully wonderful. Try it! I think you'll see what I mean.
