If you find yourself wondering if you need to remove something or some things that is NOT necessarily a bad thing. You see, for some of us, we have this need to hold on to some things for as long as possible. You don’t have to raise your hand if you agree. I know we can all be guilty of this in one way or another. The point being what is that we may have to change and remove now?
You may ask, why would I have to do this? Good question, for some it may be because without realizing it, maybe these things have now become distractions. Perhaps, it is just time to change some of these things. Maybe you became too comfortable with some of these things and they have actually been hindering your growth. These could possibly be some of the things you need to remove but what’s important is that you recognize it. I encourage you please do not make an excuse for what you know needs to be removed from your life. Removing these variety of things can be what helps you to move forward.
Making room implies increasing space available in your life. Let’s be real if you are already overloaded with so much how you can include more? We may desire more but first it’s important to analyze where we are, what necessary changes need to be made and how can I adjust to removing some things in my life.
Throughout my life I have had to do this sometimes often and sometimes over time I would see the need to make adjustments. We cannot be all things to all people and we cannot possibly fit more things into a 24hour day if we are already completely overloaded. I would love to hear from you. Where do you find yourself currently? Has this pandemic caused you to get rid of some things and include others? If so, how? Sharing your comments will encourage others who are now walking in these necessary letting go moments. Change is good even when change was not expected. Let’s keep in mind removing things cause allow space for more. Perhaps in doing this, you will find how blessed you are because you made room.

Wow, it has never occurred to me that some of the things I hold onto too tightly will hinder my growth. This post was great. It’s made me more aware of what I choose to keep in life :))
Definitely some things we hold too tightly to can hinder our growth. So blessed to hear you were encouraged! Stay connected. Looking forward to hearing from you again. ~Pastor Natalie
Wow…. what an insightful post! I have been decluttering during our home renovation for almost a year and it certainly seems to open up a space in your world for newness! Literal and figurative space!
Yesss, definitely literally and figuratively ‘Make Room.’ Blessings!
I love this way of thinking! If we make room, we allow ourselves to breathe and make room for things that suit our actual needs! Love this, Amy at amymarshment.com xx
Thank you Amy, nice to meet you. Yes, making room allows for breathing room and space for what we really need. Stay connected. ~Blessings! Pastor Natalie
