In our dream home, I had converted an entire large closet into bookshelves so there was plenty of space to hold all of my precious books. However, since moving into a very small rental there isn't much room. <br /><br />I sold many of my books at a variety of places. I donated many to friends. I still have many in boxes in the garage. I found bookshelves in Walmart for $15! My husband and I put them together and now I have three bookshelves for my books. <br /><br />So many of my books are treasures for me. They are underlined and dog eared and I just couldn't part with them all. They actually remind me of my spiritual growth. I can go back and see where I was and what I was learning. I journaled as I read my books.<br /><br />I'm learning too to declutter and get rid of things that I really don't need. It is humbling and at times very difficult but I am also learning that it's just stuff.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />DebbieDebbie Petrashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08235978883396499354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292398111323195424.post-41505408484533664612010-03-24T11:18:06.485-07:002010-03-24T11:18:06.485-07:00Great writing...just what I needed to read.

I loved your story about the bookshelves!...Janette,<br />I loved your story about the bookshelves! It is amazing how God brings people into our lives that help us to heal as we minister to them. The "realness" of this couples' testimony is evident and your empathy for them is sweet to hear and comforting to others. You write very well and I see God using this blog to comfort and inspire others. Love ya!<br />BridgetMartha Washingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17046043810145985344noreply@blogger.com
