God is teaching me to look at Him and not my circumstances. Even though I was in mental knots about being a housewife and not doing things outside the home, Jesus has untied the knots. This is where I belong right now. It's the world that says you have to hustle 24/7. Jesus gives rest. And its...

Am keeping tasks to a minimum today. I spent more quiet time with the Lord and fell back asleep. I slept so wonderfully last night. The new bedding is comfortable. My old comforter is bunched up and has thousands of fabric pills. I didn't know how to keep it fluffy so I googled that for this...

Thank you, Pearl. What are the fireworks for?

My day was good and the good Lord is seeing me through. Very excited about how the new place is looking. The bedding I purchased looks incredible and I am excited to be home from the truck to decorate my new home and put our boxes away. I did quite a lot today but it was at my own pace and for...

It's a journal-out, candlelit kind of evening. Things aren't perfect but I'm content in the Lord and grateful. The new trailer we moved into looks a thousand times better now that my in-laws cleaned up and took out their stuff. I added new bedding and made it look all pretty. I am so happy...

Stop right where you are and know that this is your life and it is enough to be happy right where you are. You don't need more things or more goals met somewhere in the future. You can be happy right now. Take stock of the blessings in your life and thank God in all things.

My day was tough in some ways. I could use more spiritual armor.

This really came at the right time and helped me make a good decision. Thank you, Frienduff! Onward in the Lord!

Praying and will continue to pray, Sis! Love you!

Amazing. I remember a famous pastor mentioned that we should only give away things we would use ourselves. I've lived by that ever since. But its a complicated issue isn't it? The secondhand clothes bring commerce but create a waste problem.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Am saving this. Will have to make this! :)

Mornings in Maryland are beautiful. Fog rolls off the trees, sunlight pours in, and the leaves are colorful and dewy. Its 9:30am right now. Hope you all have a wonderful day.

I have good road trip memories. Seeing sand dunes near Texas. A hotel with a pool and hotub in winter in Wisconsin. And God seems to feel close on the truck. The truck has bunk beds, a tv, a gaming system, and a portable stove. Still, it has taught me to only care about basic needs while Im...

It feels good to donate clothes. Unless they aren't in good condition. Thats when I would throw them away. I didn't know most clothes don't bio-degrade over time. But it makes sense with all these synthetic materials we have now. I bet polyester doesn't just biodegrade.

\O/ Praise God! Yes its that time again!!

My minimalism journey has evolved into embracing slow intentional living and making peace with my decision to be a housewife. God has told me I have need of simplicity. I didn't agree at first. But He's right as always. One good thing that has come from all this is the breaking of my...

I get that. Sometimes even inviting people you know can be a huge risk. You seem to be in a good head space. Im glad for that. Right now I am doing laundry at the truck terminal. I think someone else already payed for the machine. Truck drivers can be really kind at times. Theres also...
