Summary
Even as we declutter our home, put it back in order after a busy holiday season, so I find that I must declutter my heart to go into my year free, with grace, hope and good plans. Proverbs tells us to "Guard our heart, for from it flows the springs of life."

| 0:00.0 | Hello, my friends, and welcome to Life with Sally podcast. |
| 0:14.2 | I'm so glad you're here. |
| 0:16.1 | So please make yourself a cup of tea and come on in. |
| 0:36.4 | Thank you. Please make yourself a cup of tea and come on in. Hello, my friends. I should wish you a happy new year. It's coming up in a couple of days, |
| 0:41.8 | and I always consider this time of year to be kind of like Anne of Green Gables. She talked about the fact |
| 0:49.2 | that it's always nice to enter a new day with no mistakes in it yet. We all make mistakes, don't we? |
| 0:56.2 | But I'm looking so forward to sharing what I do every single year about this time. |
| 1:03.4 | I'm going to be talking about decluttering, straightening up, organizing your soul, decluttering it, taking away all the heavy things that are in there. |

| 2:07.9 | So I'm hoping that you can actually understand me. |
| 2:14.2 | Excuse me. |
| 2:15.3 | I'm sorry you're going to have to put up with that because I don't have the means to edit it at this point. I was working on my computer, which seems to have gone totally awry with the garage band that I use. And so now I'm working on a brand new iPad and I don't know the system yet. So bear with my cough. |
| 2:37.9 | I'm so sorry. Anyway, today I want to talk to you about what does it really mean? How can you |
| 2:45.8 | lift the burden? How can you take away some of the pain that you might have experienced in your heart? |
| 2:54.7 | It's, I love the verse, guard your heart, guard it, stand guard over your heart, for from it |
