Isaiah 28: 9-10 “Whom will he teach knowledge? And whom will he make to understand the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just drawn from the breasts? For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little.”

I am so sick of Clutter!  I'm trying to get motivated, yet again, to tackle it in a big way.  I always make some progress, but honestly, it's never enough.  I am bad about keeping stuff for sentiment or because I just know I'll use it someday.  But the thought hit me, that if there were ever a fire, or another hurricane, or whatever, I could not just grab a box of my most dear keepsakes and run.  It would ALL be lost.  And isn't keeping something that you think you may use someday really a statement of untrust toward God's provision?  I mean, if you get rid of it, and say two years from now need another, wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that God would take care of it?  We are so untrusting sometimes.  There's a difference between being wasteful and being a hoarder.  And one sometimes masks the other, doesn't it.  But isn't it true, that like giving your money to God, that letting go is the ultimate testimony to your trust in a Provider?  Well, I have a lot to prepare for.  Just wanted to stop in and think out loud.
