"I have a notion that if you are going to be spiritually curious, you better not get cluttered up with too many material things." - Mary Oliver
When God created us, He never promised us to live a chaos free life but HE promised us we will come out of every setback victorious. We were not programmed as victims of any circumstances that comes out way but as victors. We are not suppose to go through every situation but we are to grow in every situation.
As humans as we are, chaos creeps into our lives, demands our time and steals our attention. However, that clutter happens only if we allow it. By being mindful we can choose how we spend our time and money, what we spend our time thinking about and what we spend our time doing. Spiritual matters and growth rarely prevail when focus is given to the affairs of material stuff?
Perhaps we could begin by asking ourselves why we allow material things to rule over our lives. Body, mind and spirit balance our lives if we keep the focus of our life balanced. So free your inner spirit to grow by first blocking out the stuff and noise of the world in order to seek God. Perhaps the time is right to seek a personal relationship with God. Consider giving a genuine focus to the soul of your life.
