1 Timothy conviction

A few weeks back I came across a passage of scripture during my Bible study that has been helpful in keeping my attitude right as I dispose of many 'things.'

It's in 1 Timothy, Chapter 6 when Timothy is teaching about contentment. The familiar scripture is verse 7, "For we have brought nothing into the world, so we cannot take anything out of it either," but I really like verse 8, "If we have food and covering, with these we shall be contenet." Really? Just food and covering? And be content? Hmm.

Remembering this particular passage has been helpful as ProjectTwentySix becomes more challenging. And I'll be using it to look at our belongings with a critical eye this week!

Watch for double posts the next 5 days as I catch up from a vacation with DH!
