BOHO CHIC
In an effort to start saving money, I've been shopping my closet. A dreadful task I thought it would be, however, I've found quite a few treasures hidden deep within the crevices of this cave I call a closet. Take this dress for example. I bought this dress months ago and forgot I had it! I must admit that I actually found numerous brand new items which flooded me with guilt and shame. Guilt over buying new things before wearing things that I've previously purchased and shame over feeling the need to do so.
It has become very clear that my shopping has become an addiction. As a Christian, obsession with anything other than God is wrong because these things draw us away from God. The bible tells us that we are to love our Lord with all our heart, soul & might. This means that I should be spending most of my time in His Word and in His service.
Prayer:
Merciful God, today I repent for not being a better steward over what you have blessed me with and for failing to put you first. Forgive me Lord. I turn to you to help me in my weakness by reminding me of what is most important which is You. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
