Living on Less and Liking it More




I am always amazed at how God works. Even though we are supposed to have a grasp on it if we know our Bible, it still amazes me. I look for God's total provision, whether or not I have the best faith in the world. God does not depend on me to be perfect in order to work.



Our income has been reduced by 3/4ths of what it was, and we are happier and more satisfied. We look through God's eyes to view what the world thinks is important. I was out with my husband last night at the Cheesecake Factory, and we were looking around the surrounding stores during our 60 minute wait. The world thinks this is all there is, so why not grab everything you can. Grab the stuff, get in debt, don't worry, you need it all. When God is removed from the pictures, life is rather bleak, and all of those stores look pretty great!

I did however love the ocean decor at Pottery Barn. I'm only made of dust, as I remind the Lord often.



It will all burn, so, don't collect what is unimportant. Collect what is everlasting.
