I find that I'll have seasons where I take a step back from the blog world to get my feet placed more firm again and remember what is more important. and to remember to not compare. and to make sure I'm focusing on God first. which unfortunately makes me want to blog less and my then blog gets very uneventful. (: but I think those seasons are okay and only make us stronger.<br />your family is beautiful and I know I don't ACTUALLY know you but I can't wait to see your little girl! very excited for you.

You see w...Yes, I agree with what Kassi above said. You see where the problem is, so you're on the right track. You don't place the "things" in higher importance than you Lord or your family, so you're doing ok. To err is human, and he desire for "things" is just that. But it's ok. It is a struggle that we all face (I do, for sure). However, it just means that you must learn to prioritize. And I think that you do a good job of it. <br />For me, a lot of the "things" I come away wanting are crafty/DIY things. So that's good because then I can only have it if I get off my booty and make it myself, haha! Sure, there's days where I want a new skirt, or shoes, or lipgloss, or home decor... but there's also days where I'm inspired to make water beads with my kids or paint out of cornstarch. In turn, creating a priceless memory with the ones who matter most.<br />You're not feeling anything that the rest of us haven't. <br />Just continue doing your best to "filter" it all, and maybe add some different variety to your reading list... "100 things to do with your kids from the dollar store" or "Frugal Mama" type of posts. That helps!

So I just stay away from them. Just too empty,and they can suck you right in like you're saying. But just stick to the narrow path, and keep your boundaries and remember that you don't need any of that, and you are just as good without those things! Jesus tells us to not love the world, or the things in it, and not to be of the world but IN it.<br /><br />Hope you're feeling good, I'm sure you are getting anxious/excited!Contemplating Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09808854805547064281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577327657226148818.post-86258216780452860172012-08-13T22:41:37.781-05:002012-08-13T22:41:37.781-05:00I can relate.

It's hard to see people succeeding in so many things that you may never have the opportunity to, but you need to remember to be grateful for what you already have and continue to work towards accomplishing things in your own way and time :)<br /><br />xo Jennifer<br /><br />http://seekingstyleblog.wordpress.comSeeking Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11068517127745828244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577327657226148818.post-4589577957657929032012-08-13T17:01:55.292-05:002012-08-13T17:01:55.292-05:00Ah, good point!

I think you're already on the right track though... You know what matters! I also think as long as you know what matters it's ok to see things you'd like to have and wish for them. The problem is when you put aside the things that REALLY matter to have the things that don't.

I know I need to focus more on what God wants for me and less of what the world wants!
