Unpacking!!!

  We just recently moved.  To prepare for the move we started months and months ago packing, sorting, giving away and throwing away items.  We have now moved into the unpacking phase.  It is a adventure rediscovering all that we had packed away and forgotten about.  I have noticed that in the hectic pace of the last week trying to get all the items moved from one location to the next, I was not spending as much time in the word for myself I was so focused on getting it all done.  I did a lot of it by myself and I became discouraged and unmotivated the longer that the process of packing and sorting became.  Our spiritual lives are much the same way.  We are in the process of going from one kingdom to the next and we have to take inventory and throw out and let go of things that are no longer useful to our spiritual lives.  During my packing it become lonely.  I because of past hurts have a difficult time asking for help.  I learned on this journey that no matter how much progress I have made I still have a ways to go in learning how to interact with people and how to ask for help.  I  thought the things I was doing was asking for help and I have been humbled by hearing that they were incorrect.  Changes are on the horizon in so many areas.
