And how we keep buying more stuff to bring in the house. Ugh. Thanks for reinforcing the thought and realizing that this extra stuff is stressful.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15677498231730834501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479353484011316066.post-83863485271043658072011-11-18T03:55:34.948-05:002011-11-18T03:55:34.948-05:00Good thoughts!

Other than the functional ones, I can usually take things or leave them (that's why I'm not leaving this comment on the giveaway post--I realized I don't really want a Scentsy candle. If anything, I need to get RID of some of my candles!:)). The exceptions to that rule are the things that remind me of the important things in life. My collage frames are on the top of that list. I have them in my kitchen to remind me of all the blessings that God has given me in the form of family and friends. I LOVE those kinds of things!<br /><br />I like your distinction that not all "things" are bad. No, they do not define us, and they don't give us worth, but they can be used as tools to further God's kingdom on earth. As long as we are the boss of THEM, and they don't rule over US, then they can be a wonderful blessing to us and others!<br /><br />--KimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
