Today's a real challenge
About the stuff we own
I'm not bothered about the Jones'
But getting rid makes me moan
My clothes all go to charity
Along with books and toys
But items given by people
Clutter up my many shelves
So I'm asking God to show me
Things that I value too much
Things I really should give away
Even if it feels quite tough
Then I'll give that item
To someone or a charity
For them to treasure themselves
I wonder how that will be
Then I'll make a list
Of all the stuff that clutters my life
I'll really try to thin it out
Even if it causes me strife
This is living lightly
I know it will be hard
But I'm sure I'll learn lots from it
So I'm off to make a start
