I was really shocked it's a problem with us we think more and take actions less. Another lesson she taught me, now I think less and take actions more.

I think sometimes of the stories that came out of the concentration camps in WWII - how those who could do little else would share a scrap of bread, or take someone else's place in the line. I know their circumstances were extreme in a way mine are not, but I find inspiration in the choices they made. xPen Wilcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13818227904371811230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-63635396781896775692016-03-24T13:37:18.992+00:002016-03-24T13:37:18.992+00:00I wish my life lined up better with what I believe...I wish my life lined up better with what I believe too. Especially for my children and grandchildren. <br /><br />I think your life has preached quite eloquently. Jesus has used you to help me, Ember.<br /><br />And there are many of us in the States who are stunned at what is happening. We have much to be ashamed of in our country's history, indeed. I am terribly concerned for what's coming, and must keep reminding myself that God is in control and none of this is surprising Him. Grieving Him deeply, I'm sure. But His love, power and sovereignty will surely steer the ship where He intends it to go, even if divine discipline (severe mercy) is part of the sometimes harrowing journey. :(<br /><br />And little things, done for Him and others in His strength and love, still matter, and accomplish something.<br /><br />xoxoJulie B.http://www.justjulieb.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-55293393358977080882016-03-24T13:33:59.447+00:002016-03-24T13:33:59.447+00:00:0D

Blessings on the way ahead. x<br /><br />Becky - I'm so glad you found the simplicity book a help. I know what you mean about shared space - I also live in a shared house, but I am blessed to be in a home where *everyone* is ardent for simplicity/minimalism. I think it's like humming a tune; you just follow in your way and other people pick it up and start humming it too without really noticing themselves doing it. Have you read Marie Kondo's book? I found that a great inspiration. xPen Wilcockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13818227904371811230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-22957312525224588722016-03-24T13:28:41.768+00:002016-03-24T13:28:41.768+00:00Hi Anne - nearly lost your comment - it got muddle...Hi Anne - nearly lost your comment - it got muddled up in a Googlemail stack!

Having met you in person your manner and way preaches what your words do too. <br /><br />I am being baptised on Sunday Pen, and a very large part of that is down to you. You are mentioned in an upcoming blog post of mine and you will have one of your own in my influencers series. <br /><br />I will not let you say that your life does not preach.

Reviewers say they work okay as stand-alone, but all seem to agree you get more out of the series if you read it in sequence. I personally would put book 7 by until I'd read 4//5/6.

Thank you. I think you NOT feeling you have got there but carrying on is an encouragement - there are people who blog or write about the success of their simplicity and it discourages or intimidates. So, I think God uses our weakness beautifully - and definitely, you putting yourself out there and writing about how much you love simplicity has made me look at life in a different way. I sit surrounded by things (mainly books and paper) and I can't quite see how to simplify - but at least I know from your blog and life that it is definitely worth thinking about and trying!Anne Boothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17160915179685300264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-55532501364780143.post-32480061487797490892016-03-24T02:33:54.883+00:002016-03-24T02:33:54.883+00:00I am finding this world most distressing.
