Over the past couple weeks my family and I have been packing up the house in Asheville, NC to move to Greensboro, NC. I have been overwhelmed by the amount of stuff we have. In this time I have realized a few things:
1. We don't need all of the stuff.
2. We have boxes never unpacked from the move to Asheville.
3. Some of the stuff could be helpful to others.
4. A 26ft Penske truck is starting to seem much smaller
The list could go on but then you probably would stop reading. The reality is that it is time to clean house some. The black trash bags for trash and donations of stuff that clutters our life is on the way out. As I have been doing this I have been thinking about how we let things clutter our life and keep us from clearly seeing God and serving God effectively. We can do many good things and yet miss our God things and spending the all important time with God. It has also made me think how so much of our stuff could be helpful to others.
Let Go and Let God have control! For some things in life as my friend Byrd Baggett shares you need to "flush it and move on".
Back to the boxes and bags for me and hopefully ready to post again later next week.
