Okay, Mary.. this chapter was on getting rid of the clutter. I'm all for clearing my schedule, my desk out, even things in the house; but my wardrobe? Come on, Mary.. really?
I'm not gonna give it all away by telling what exactly she said; but I will say that I need to read this chapter probably another time or two.
She's right, though. We let so much stuff get in the way of us truly enjoying this life that Christ gives us. He said that He came to give us life, and life more abundantly. That doesn't mean we need more stuff. I don't need an abundant closet.
God also says in the old testament that we are to be still and know that He is God. How can I be still when I've got the tv, mp3 player, radio, etc. constantly going all the time?
Jesus told the waters, "Peace be still." I so much feel as though I'm getting the same message.
