    Why Decluttering Benefits Go Beyond a Clean and Tidy Home

    April 17, 2025 /

    Decluttering benefits are about so much more than just a clean home. As a single Christian woman, I’ve often found myself surrounded by “too much.” Too much stuff, too many responsibilities, and, sometimes, too much mental clutter. Life feels full, yet not always in the most fulfilling ways. The piles of paperwork on the dining table and the overflowing junk drawer in the kitchen often mirrored my inner state—chaotic, overwhelmed, and yearning for peace.

    How to Live A Slow, Mindful Christian Life

    April 4, 2025 /

    Busy days filled with overflowing schedules and endless to-do lists can leave us feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and profoundly disconnected from what truly matters.  This persistent sense of urgency often erodes our joy, strains our relationships, and hinders our ability to discern God’s voice. It’s precisely in this context that the art of a slow, christian living becomes not just relevant but essential for our well-being and spiritual vitality.    Slow living, especially when understood within a Christian context, isn’t about shirking responsibility, avoiding productivity, or retreating from the world.  It’s not a call to laziness or inactivity.

Life today moves at an overwhelming pace. From the moment we wake up, our minds are flooded with to-do lists, responsibilities, and distractions. The rat race of today’s world can feel never-ending, leaving little time to reflect on what truly matters. If you’ve ever felt drained, restless, or disconnected from God’s presence, you’re not alone. Many of us struggle to find time for stillness in our busy lives, but God’s word reminds us that true peace is possible. The good news is…
