Where is My FOCUS 🧐

There is possibility to lose perspective when our lives are out of focus.

Who I am in Christ is much more important than what I can do for Him.
Jesus is my focus, He takes care of showing me things I need to see.
If I am not being careful, peripheral issues becomes distractions from the focus of the gospel.

NONESSENTIAL ISSUE vs ESSENTIAL

🔅Whether women should preach ♦️ Whether Christ is preached
🔅How I worship ♦️Who I worship
🔅How I look♦️How I live
🔅My achievements ♦️How I love
🔅My opinions♦️The truth
🔅My identity in culture♦️My identity in Christ
🔅What I have ♦️What I give
🔅Unity of doctrine♦️Unity in faith
🔅What I eat♦️What I say
🔅What culture says♦️What scripture says
🔅What others do♦️What I do
🔅What I study♦️What I live
🔅The integrity of others ♦️My integrity
🔅What others believe♦️What I believe
🔅How I dress♦️How I clothe the naked
🔅How I’ve been wronged♦️How I forgive

I’ve discovered the ONE thing most important choosing to sit at the feet of Jesus. It’s my heart posture of adoration and learning.

Thankful for by

Scored at thrift shore, refinished and sold in no time.

I remember when we just moved to Canada 🇨🇦, we shopped a lot at thrift stores and I felt somewhat ashamed cuz we’ve never went at any thrift stores back in our country. We always would buy stuff new, not used... And then I had experience working at Value Village for less than 3 months which I was never proud of.

But years later, somehow I got interested in refurbishing vintage furniture/decor and it got me hooked. I found my passion and enjoyed doing it.

Now I can clearly tell you that 𝚃𝙷𝚁𝙸𝙵𝚃𝚒𝚗𝚐 is in style and so popular these days. And yes, I am no longer embarrassed by shopping at those stores. You can find so many one of a kind unique treasures that no one has.

So get inspired and check out your local thrift store and tell me what did you get to find.

Hopefully most of thrift stores will be reopen soon.

We all love our homes tidy, organized and clean. Most of us when we see those Instagram perfect pictures and think I’m so far way from this perfection. But the thing is, life is bigger than those photos. So don’t get anxious! And if you have kids, you know that is almost impossible to keep it neat all the time even if you have full-time housekeeper lol 😂

⠀
But as same time I don’t want to have a house full of clutter so I just started with small sections in my house. Cleaning out closets, getting rid of stuff that I won’t be using in the next half a year. And believe me I have tons of things those that I was collecting for a long time, planning to refurbish or do something out of it. And I came to conclusion that if I won’t be able to finish them in next few months, I am either selling or donating them. Sometime you just have to let things go. It just makes things easier and, for me, less worrisome.⠀
