Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what you want me to be, and becoming that person.
–St. Therese of Lisieux
It is easier said than done. As I reflect on it, I have a habit of yearning for a simple life, but find myself getting bogged down without realizing it. My life can get so cluttered that I need to clean it out – emotionally, mentally and literally!
Yesterday my husband, daughter and I went through our closet and put in the give away bag all pieces we no longer wear, or don’t fit. We ended up with a garbage bag full.
How often do we need to do this in our lives – quite literally emptying out garbage in our headspace, especially those harsh and hurtful arrows thrown our way. How often do we need to trim down our commitments and keep it simple.
Prioritize what’s important in life means being focused on Jesus. All else will fall into place with some trimming. This includes streamlining all the unnecessary fluff.
Jesus I love you!
God Bless 💕🙏
