Last week I moved. Again. This makes about 5 times in the last 18 months. Moving never gets easier, or fun. With every move you end up getting rid of a few things. This usually happens for me at the end when I am at my wits end and decide I just want to be done and can live without the things that have yet to be moved. But this move I went into it knowing I did not want to take a lot of it with me. Anything I had not used in the past 3 moves or so, gone. Anything that I keep saving "just in case" (but never end up needing), gone.
Knowing that I am going on the race is really helping me see what is important. I feel like I go through fazes when material things become important and when I know what is truly important. It is so easy to get wrapped up in cute hats or a new pair of shoes. My goal before I leave for the race is to only buy what is necessary. I don't really need a new DVD. Nor do I need another pair of shoes.
Please help keep my accountable. I want to put these resources back into the Kingdom and watch the work God can do with them.
