I've never been one to mind the mess until now. And remember that a clean house can bring a lot of comfort to your family, so you can experience some messes together and THEN clean them up together too!herejessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12345566309593367554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4093223077470044132.post-22665787885384968192012-06-20T10:33:49.369-05:002012-06-20T10:33:49.369-05:00"I know all the wrong turns and stumbles and ..."I know all the wrong turns and stumbles and falls brought me here," Ben Folds sings.herejessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12345566309593367554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4093223077470044132.post-91561235273732522962012-06-20T08:58:33.936-05:002012-06-20T08:58:33.936-05:00Thanks!

I have been making small strides in that and am getting better. But that BEAUTIFUL poem reminded me that to the eye of the perfectionist God's creation could appear "messy" - when, in fact, it is beautiful. Maybe I need to start viewing my home in the same way. Thank you for this incredible lesson. I feel as if my eyes have been opened to something fresh and new. Hopping over from Life In Bloom.
