Packing up

Started packing up our "valuables" last week. Have decided to give most of our furniture to fund missions and the rest to the renters. The process of eliminating the things in my life I find physical comfort in has been rough. I estimated at least three "break" downs. Perhaps this is the withdrawal stages of detox. God is faithful, every time I lay it at His feet He picks it up and comforts me.
I have asked and been asked....is this "stuff" bad. It's a couch, baking stuff, tv, bed. Detox from this? Is it so addictive that we need to cleanse our blood stream of these toxin's? YUP
Our stuff became an idol of comfort and security. Our stuff became a thing to strive for more of. Our stuff hinders us from giving unselfishly to God, our children and the world God loves. It's our stuff that is prohibiting God from working in us. So our stuff is gone...
