clean sweep

yes, it's that time of the year again. time to empty all the closets in the house, go through all the clothes we don't wear. time to take some bags & boxes (5!) down to MCC. it continues to amaze me how much 'stuff' we collect. i've spent the last year, organizing and re-organizing all of it. i finally decided that if it's not being used it's outa here. the only problem is while i'm trying to simplify, my hubby continues to collect. i just get a corner cleaned out and turn around and find myself saying "where the heck did that pile of stuff come from??, i just cleaned it out!"

i can imagine that as God works in my life and in my heart He must turn around daily and say "where did that junk come from, i just cleaned it up!" thank goodness His grace surpasses my habit of collecting junk in my life. funny thing is alot of what I hold on to appears to be important to me but really it's just clutter.

anyway.....back to cleaning.
