Eviction Notice

Today is the day! I am not going to let CHAOS rule my life. I have let it control me too long.

Today I was blessed to hear the "Fly Lady" speak at a luncheon. I found out about her several years ago through a ladies group we used to have at Paulann. While others started using her suggestions right away, I felt fear. This thing was too big for me and it was overwhelming. So I kept fearing and the CHAOS grew. People offered to come show me how they were using Fly Lady and help me get started. Others offered to just clean my house so I could start anew. I rejected all that because of fear of judgement and rejection.

So now I sit here today with a mess. After seeing Fly Lady and hearing her speak once again, something went off in my head. Just do it! God has brought to an amazing point in my life but I am still hold onto this junk. NO MORE! Today, May 14th, at 11:33, I am sending an eviction notice. CHAOS is not living here rent free! It has got to go!

So if you can, pray for me as I embark on this journey. Ask me how I am doing? And if you are brave enough, stop by and bring a shovel.

Oh Laurie --- As I read this post, I felt the Holy Spirit move. No kidding. I am so excited for what God has done and is doing in your life -- and in mine. I love seeing him work and bring us to a place of freedom. For some, freedom is instantaneous - Pow - it's done. Not for me -- or for you -- it's been a real growing process. But, hallelujah -- He doesn't stop setting us free until we are totally free. If I can do anything, I mean it, anything to help you....please, please call me, FB me, let me.....Hey, you know what? I think you need to take some "before" pictures. Just to have them. And just to give testimony and glory to Him when you get to the "after" pictures. Love ya, girl....gwynie
