Start Simplifying Right This Moment Episode12

So you want to simplify your life, but don’t even know where to start? Usually, the hardest part is taking the first step. Have you read all about simplifying, reducing clutter, and purging the house—-and then you look around and are so overwhelmed, you throw in the towel before you start. Or do you get super motivated to start your plan and go full force, only to find in a few days you start to unravel it all? Simplifying is about so much more than clutter- it is a heart issue that starts inside and works its way out. Simplifying is such a buzz word these days, and for me it is about SO much more than just getting rid of “stuff.” It is about understating the heart behind why we have so much clutter, and why we think we need so much. It is about focusing on the fact that God is all we need, and nothing else can fill that void. Yet, as a society we have bought into the lie, that more stuff equals more happiness. And the more we toil and attain, the more unhappy we become. Our houses are full, and our hearts are empty. We also have more information than ever and are completely overwhelmed as to what to do with it all. So in order to even begin simplifying, we need to start by knowing our Creator, and our purpose- which is to know Him and make Him known. The closer we are to Him, the less we will desire to fill up on stuff.
