person holding plastic bag with garbage

Isn’t it amazing how quickly things accumulate over the years. But this post doesn’t just apply to ‘stuff’. It applies to anything that wears you down and keeps you from having the life that you desire. Holding grudges is certainly something worth throwing out. Also baggage from unresolved past issues. It might not be as simple as tossing a bag in the garbage can, but those kinds of things can be discarded over time with the right attitude and possibly with needed help.

Throwing out unwanted things can be as simple as cleaning out a junk drawer. It might be necessary to look at each item carefully to determine what is ‘junk’ and what is something worth resolving or keeping. Not all junk is bad. Some items can be turned into something beautiful or might be kept as a memory. Junk can be internal or external. Less stuff or junk means less stress!

Past mistakes and sins can be discarded through the gift of repentance. Nothing can be sweeter than discarding those kinds of burdens. I testify that repentance brings freedom and peace. God is there to help you! Jesus Christ paid the price for all of mankinds mistakes and sins.

What can you discard from your life to make it better?
