You can look everywhere for something to fill the void in your heart, but answering these three questions can help.
The only true way to fill, and clean, the heart is through the faith in God.
I looked in many places for what i thought was important, but soon lost interest or felt stifled and moved to something else, or somewhere else. Always felt good at first, but slowly dwindled.
Then i came back to Christ and the hole started filling in. Lots of miracles happened in my life fighting cancer twice. Many more to come, but keep the three questions in mind, pray, pass what you do not have control of to the Lord, pray on the rest, and laugh at if all.
Don't let it get to you or it will eat you from the inside out.
The questions are especially useful with books! One it a while, I scan my book collection, and often find recyclables. Someone might find better use for them than I...
I love seeing the paintings. Coincidentally, I have a blue and white teapot that was a gift from a friend (not as old as the Qing dynasty). I am asking the same questions, since I am moving at the end of January. I will put a photo of it into my Sunday newsletter--without explanation. So only people who read both our newsletters will see the connection.
Moving is certainly a great time for combing through accumulated possessions. I wish you an easy transition.

Thanks, Randy, for your insights! I very much appreciate your words, especially your advice to pray and laugh at it all!
Wonderful three questions. I think I'll put them to use in my life. It might lead to a beginning!
