Relief!

Lol.  I'm just so pleased with my room that when I walk in to clean it some more, I find myself just staring at it.

It has been a journey for me to have a clean room!  It is a long story lol, with chapters about me just being lazy...feeling helpless to change my room... or thinking it didn't matter because we might move in a month anyway. Blah, blah, blah.

  But I recently realized the importance of having your own rest spot.  And by george.... I made one!

I tore through the house and found things no one was using that I liked.  I put them in my room. I organized, dusted, recycled.  I did a lot of staring at walls and shelves until the arrangement felt right.

And now I have a room I am proud to call mine.  Such a simple thing, but it feels like such an accomplishment.

You can't help but think how people must feel when their whole house gets redone, especially those who really aren't in the situation to be able to do that.  It is a beautiful relief to walk into a place you WANT to be that is cleanly and organized.

Can you come alongside anyone who wants a change in their home, but doesn't know where to start?  Or can you make a difference in your own life by changing your environment?

"God is a god of order... so clean your room!"  You know, I think all the moms who used that line were right.
