My "De-Cluttered" lifestyle doesn't just reflect my earthly closet, it is my heart's closet, my time closet, my daily activities closet, my life closet! Learning to give up on all the lies the Devil tricks me into believing. Things and situations that tend to "clutter" my life and time, which in turn stresses me and my family. No more "keeping up with the Jone's" and no more "I am woman, hear me roar!" But more of "the woman God created me to be." Simply me...

My Blog's Purpose

Well, this is where I wanted to get to with my blog. But I am such a freak about organizing and what has to be done in orders I may never get there except by just jumping in. So, you will still see post about my past and testimony. My past and testimony is so important because, here I am, part of a church for nearly 6 years now and most of them don’t know who I am. I want everyone to know my heart and who I am.

With that said… I have made many changes in the past year that you’ll have to wait on those post to know or I’ll never get to the point. Ha! While sharing with close friends and family, I found that 2 are better than 1 and wanted to share my journey with them and was looking for an outlet to do that. Let’s be honest, taking 1 more day of the week to meet up for a few hours with friends isn’t practical when I’m looking for more time with my family! So, this is my outlet.

I wanted my husband to be a leader. I found, I was the one keeping him from being that. Some of it was me being strong willed and some was things we all do everyday and don’t even realize it to be in the way. So, I was asking God, “Why won’t he step it up?” He answered me, “Because you’re in the way.” Ouch! I never liked when you read the scriptures concerning women in the Bible and how they should submit and all that. But God said if you want him to truly lead, you have to be ready to follow.  So, this is me following God’s direction. I hope by sharing some of the things God has spoken to me about changing, will in turn help you too as wives and mothers. If any men read, maybe they can understand their wives or mothers a little better. God is still speaking because I am still seeking! I will never master this thing because I am human. Tomorrow, I will fail, but I hope I will recognize it and ask for forgiveness and try again. I truly love you all. There is no personal gain in my blog. I just wanted to share with my friend in the most convenient way possible so please comment and suggest. I am not the leader here. I would love the interaction from you!
