It Makes Sense To Me 11/30/2023

 Good Morning,

I am heading out early once more this week and I am embracing a hot mug of Door County Country Morning Blend Coffee. It is time to write.

In just about every home there is a drawer or closet filled with junk. My wife Rene and I have a drawer in the kitchen known as the "junk drawer". Pens,  pencils, thumb tacks, nails, screws, flashlights, string, batteries, measuring tapes, small tools, paper clips, tape, glue and many other assorted items. We do from time to time go into that drawer and look for different things. It is a chore to find anything in that drawer. Rene straightens it out twice a year, but no matter what she does it is still a drawer filled with things I can't find in a hurry.

So, not long ago I mentioned the idea to organize our junk receptacle and we tried, but once it was organized we could not get all the junk to fit back in the drawer. So then we purged some stuff and wouldn't you know, the next item I needed had been thrown away in the purge. I do believe we need to resolve the clutter in the drawer so it makes sense to us and we will be more organized. 

Sometimes our lives get cluttered with too many things to do or handle at one time. It's then that we need to call a time out and purge things that are just weighing us down and holding us hostage. In other words we need to organize by importance and if needed, step away from those things that could actually be harmful and cause us to lose sleep for no good reason. 

1 Corinthians 14:33 For God is not a God of confusion but of peace as in all the churches of the saints. 

Organize and purge if needed.

Marty
