Yes, I totally understand that desire to cling to things. 🙁 I had to clean out my closet yesterday to make room for some new clothes that I was given, and it was so hard figuring out what to get rid of. It’s never an easy process to let go. God bless you as you care for your mother in your home, Donna. Onward to 2018!

I moved my mom out of her home into ours at the beginning of the year. She isn’t a hoarder, but the need for everything she gave away to be personal was the same. Even personally, I’m constantly trying to downsize, but find it hard to get rid of some things because “I may need/want them later.” We tend to cling to the things of this world, don’t we! May we all be better at focusing on eternal things in the coming year!

Exactly! Of course, new stuff will be out, and they won’t want our old stuff.

Books are the thing I have the hardest time getting rid of. 🙁 Granted, I do return to many of them again and again. But still I have far more than I need. Hope you have a blessed Christmas, Rebecca! (And I fixed the comment so it shows up as you.)

I’ve saved stuff for yet unborn grandkids too. 🙂 As if they’re going to want any of it. ha. Hope you have a Merry Christmas too, Maree!

I love books and collecting. But I hate clutter and cleaning closets. I do love the idea of Him still being flesh among us, and His Spirit is ever present, Merry Christmas!

I had to laugh I too save things for future grandkids and none of my kids are even married. I do love to give and when I think about someone using it the giving gets easy. I still keep way too much.

Most important I want to live out your words, “Put him on. Live him out. Wear him well.”

Merry Christmas to You,

Maree

Same here, Lisa. I’m thankful for the grace of Jesus, too!

I know I fall short, too, Susan. The needs seem greater than our supply of time and/or energy and/or care. Thankfully the hands and feet are numerous around us, and the Lord continues to use us in another area even when we fall short in one area. You have been a wonderful example for me to get out there in the world and make a difference in whatever small way I can. Thank you and have a blessed Christmas yourself!

Yes, I thought her reasoning was good, too. I often get hung up on that point as well: I want my stuff to go where it is needed. The flaw for me is that in my search for the perfect home for each item, I do what Hope did, and end up procrastinating and doing nothing with it. Just letting go isn’t as easy as it sounds. There’s always next year to get rid of my clutter, yes? 😉 Merry Christmas, June! Thank you for my beautiful e-card!
