I've been there. That's why I want to share five simple things you can put into practice so you can stop feeling like a mess-even when your house is messy! How to Make Life Simpler with Emily Ley My friend Emily Ley is a speaker, author and simplicity expert. One of the things I love about her teaching is that she gives small, practical tips we can use every day to organize and manage our lives better. The Secret to Loving Your House "I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty." Philippians 4:11-12 (NIV) Even with a spotless, Pinterest-perfect house, we can still be unhappy with what we have. That's why this verse from Philippians is so powerful: It reminds us that with the power of the Holy Spirit, we can be content in any circumstance! Let's bring this concept home by answering these journal questions: What do you love about your home? How does it change the way you view your home when you set your mind on what you're grateful for? How can you practice being content in your home, your life, and your situations right now?
