Bin It!!!

This year I have been having work on the flat and made a third bedroom. This involved a new bathroom and kitchen. I'm so happy with the outcome and although still a little decorating to do Im happy with it so far. Just before the work started a friend came over to help get rid of some Junk. this I found so hard because I'm just rubbish at throwing things out, and still my flat is full of things I don't really need.

the hardest part was throwing out my boys stuff, unsure what to keep and what to dump. I'm pretty sure I got rid of 10 bin liner that week and need that friend to help motivate me and tell me to "Bin It". which I did reluctantly. The rule she used was if I've not looked at it or used it in 2 years then its going.

Why is it some things in our lives are just to hard to get rid of. These are the things that we really dont know why but store them anyway. things that are really no use or have little value. I guess for me it was a time to start over and kick of 2018 with a good feeling.

The bible tells us that God was the beggining and end. and when we come to him and ask for forgivness and ask him into our lives the bible say we are a new creation and born again, the past is whipped clean. its like throwing 10 bin liners of junk away. Starting afresh.

At times we have so much in our lives that takes up room, and stops us to move forward. Sometime in church you'll here "leave in at the cross" this i guess is another way of saying bin it. Jesus died on a cross to forgive our sins, we are also told that h makes all things work for good.
