I have been on the path of minimalism myself, and it is a difficult path for sure. And I could have used this book a few years ago to help me end a toxic relationship. It ended, thankfully and it was the beginning of a new and wonderful life. It sounds like a wonderful book. I am interested in her biblical perspective and I have never thought of it before from a biblical perspective.<br /><br />I would also say I am so happy that you let us know how you are doing at this stage in your life and it sounds to me like God is blessing you in many ways.

Many of us have been influenced over the years to rid ourselves of material things that we don't need or want anymore, and that is all well and good, especially for our closets and living environments! However, there are still so many areas of our personal lives where we hang on to attitudes that stuff the "closet" of our hearts with way too much junk that ends up becoming a stench of unsavory attitudes in the face of God. How brilliant to switch the notion of decluttering our homes to decluttering our minds and spirits. This is much needed and I must say that I recently went out beyond my comfort zone in order to clear up a misunderstanding and hurt with another individual. I felt that by speaking my heart in in truth, I had cleared away unnecessary "stuff."

Glad you could read it and come away with spiritual wisdom and seeing your path in life and how to continue forward. Life really can send us some road blocks to being happy and finding joy and not basing our feeling on our possessions. I think like food and substance abuse possessions can also be toxic. Good to see your post Nancy. Hope all is well.<br />xoxo<br />KrisJunkchiccottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13312068546640480844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6915998197494794177.post-76217057511021864852020-08-03T20:28:47.495-07:002020-08-03T20:28:47.495-07:00I would love to win a copy!
