Fresh Eyes

It is spring in Florida and it is invigorating. The birds are especially loud this time of year. They are busy preparing their nests.

With the focus on our home in Monday’s post, it has given me fresh eyes for an important part of the home.

Take a good look at your bedroom.

The bedroom is the one place that is ours. If you have children at home they can easily take over the space with toys, homework and other things that clutter up your space. They may even sleep in your room more than theirs.

If you don’t have children to blame, then let’s be honest and put off procrastination.

I am now seeing things which through the winter months have been neglected.

What clutter has accumulated that doesn’t belong? Laundry, bills, receipts or even dust? If you’re like me I put it off thinking I don’t have time. But in reality we do.

This is a nudge to encourage you to reclaim your space. It should be a place of retreat for you and your spouse alone.

Try this challenge: Set the timer for 30 minutes and get to work. See how much you can accomplish before the timer goes off. You may be surprised at your ability to finish the job.

May God help has have fresh eyes today to do what needs to be done in order to make our room a place of refuge for us now and in the days to come.

    Thank you for sweetly encouraging us to keep our bedroom a special place. Yesterday, while I was gone to the ladies bible study, I was surprised to come home and find that my hubby had put up on our bedroom wall a pretty 3 heart decoration from Hobby Lobby that I had bought a while back ago and hadn’t put up yet. We enjoy making our bedroom a special place for the 3 of us (yes, him, I and God).
