Clearing out the junk.

Today I have been in the garden trying to give it some TLC.

It's been a while since I have been out there due to illness, and life getting in the way.

I could not believe how overgrown things were, it took three of us to clear out weeds, dead plants and rubbish in a morning. It was thereputic but I was shocked how if things are not attended to it can become an overwhelming job and demanding job to do.

I wondered about the situation my spiritual life was in, and how deep rooots have become from issues I cannot resolve how some of them were probably bigger then the ones I pulled out of the ground. It was shocking how thick and deep some roots can be and how hard they are to pull out. My mother in law looked as though she was doing tug of war with one plant!!

So, to make life easier for myself and for God. I need to let go of a few things in my life.

Get rid of bad thinking habits, bad attitudes and bad ambitions, and live a life free from expectations that are pulling me down.

Is that what God is saying to you today? That you need to change some things so he can have some more space to do things in your life?
