In 4 years my plan is to move with my family into a small cabin, less than 600 square feet and own only 100 items. Enjoy each and every single day with simple joys! ~Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.~ 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Finding places for it all to go!

With cleaning out comes a new problem, where should it all go? I would rather to give to those in need or who would really appreciate the item, than just donate it to a thrift shop, but how do you really connect with those people?

Years ago I collected old photographs. No particular reason, other than I enjoy looking at them. One picture is from a wedding. Maybe from the 40's or 50's. It's a great picture and there are names fading on the back. I tried for years to locate a descendant from the picture, but had no luck. I had high hopes of giving it to them. Now it sits beside me and I'm ready to let it go. If I send it to the thrift shop, it will surely be trashed. So the question becomes what do I do with the things I have treasured all these years. My God guide every item I gave away, to the home He has planned for it!
