Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27
Too much stuff can eventually drive a person bonkers. This could be too much paper junk mail. Too much electronic junk mail. Too many unworn clothes in your closet. Too many boxes in your attic or storage. Just clutter in general. When you get rid of it your mind can feel more peaceful.
Some personalities can tend to be all over the place or if not careful a person can just have plain too much activity in their life. If that occurs it is necessary to declutter your calendar as well. You can’t act like Superman or Superwoman forever for eventually your mind needs a rest.
Sitting and just being still is a great discipline. No TV, no mobile device, no reading material, no music playing. Just let your mind and heart rest. While you do this try to have a good scripture verse to meditate upon.

As you approach the end of the first month of 2018 make sure you learn the value of resting and being peaceful.
PRAYER: Oh the beauty of nature. The gentle wind or the sound of ocean waves. The chirping of a bird. You are there Lord in all of it. Lord help me learn to declutter my life and be still. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
