270. Declutter That Mound of Clothing in Your Bedroom
Opening Bible verse: Matthew 26:26-29 Jesus did not mince His words when He Instituted the Eucharist. He declared that this was His body, this was His blood. When we have a mound of clothing in our bedrooms, it is indecision. If you want to eliminate and declutter that mound of clothing on the floor, on the chair, on the surface, on the treadmill, ask yourself this, "Is it clean enough to wear again?" That's it. Make a decision and either hang it up to wear again or place it in the hamper to wash.

139. I Overpacked...The Weight of All This STUFF
Opening Bible verse: Matthew 2:14-15 When the Holy Family had to flee in the night into Egypt, I'm guessing the Blessed Mother didn't have the time or the ability to pack everything she wanted to bring. Ultimately, they heard what God wanted them to do and they did it. They did their part and trusted that He would provide for all the rest. When I packed for our month long vacation in Europe, I was not so trusting. I way overpacked. As the month wore on, I began to feel just how heavy my bac...

Opening Bible verse: Luke 9:62 When I was in 4th grade I started running track. My dad could often be heard yelling, "Don't Look Back!" as I rounded the final turn. I was always looking back to see where my competition was instead of facing forward and running my own race. I lost precious time looking back, therefore, winning my heat, but not the event. In the opening Bible verse, Jesus talks about just how serious a commitment it is to follow Him. If you look back, you are not fit for the kingdom of God.
