De-cluttering My House Days 19 & 20

Now That’s God

My Mom sent me a link to this in an email today.  She didn’t warn me that I would need tissues, so I’m warning you – have some on hand.  This story, true or not, touched my heart deeply and I felt led to share it with you.

De-cluttering My House Days 16-18

Okay, so maybe you are wondering if I’ve set aside my de-cluttering or perhaps even turned my back on it???  Well, I haven’t been productive this week in the way that I wanted, but God had something else in mind for me.  I have in fact been de-cluttering – as I said earlier in the [...]

Works For Me Wednesday – Conversion Chart
