How long will you lie there, O sluggard? When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man. Proverbs 6:9-11
Time wasters are everywhere and one of the biggest of 2018 was wading through unnecessary email and paper junk mail. Conveniently online you can quickly click ‘unsubscribe’ and you will receive a message “sorry to see you go”. It is a message I love to see more and more.
The more you get rid of unnecessary distractions in your life the more time you will have to spend on what really matters. Clutter keeps you from what is important and can be a major distraction in your life and even put you in stupor like behavior if not careful.
As you are charting your course for 2019 why not seriously look at the junk mail you get electronically and and in paper format and throw it out before it buries you and takes away your peace.
PRAYER: New years are all about new starts and deciding to do new things or go in a different direction. Lord give me strength to get control of all kinds of clutter especially junk mail. Help me use wisdom and discernment in what to keep and what to trash and delete. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Becky: You have some good thoughts here. All our junk mail that comes snail mail goes into my recycle bags. You'd be surprised how soon a bag can fill up. Peace and blessings.
