Simple Things...

I rejoice in defining purpose. I am thankful for the ability to intentionally say next or no to the things that clutter my soul. I have not always been able to do that. I have in the past let people or things that are a drain take up my time, my resources and my spirit. Once I defined my purpose; brought clarity to my life it simplified it in such a way that I could more easily see the clutter. The clutter was distractions keeping me from my defining purpose and what God had for me. What is cluttering your life today? Is it people taking up space because you think you cannot face being alone? Is it things that you think you need? Is it a job that keeps you from the simple things that really matter? I would challenge you today to sit down and write your defining purpose and then make a list of what in your life supports that and what is merely a distraction. There is a freeness in simplified life!
