I went to an overseas mission field for a few years after college and didn't own much more than clothing and books -- so it was pretty easy in that regard. :) These are good thoughts — I just recently wrote a blog post noting that the more stuff I have, the more attached to it I get.

We are missionaries and are in the process of moving to the field. I'm on the overwhelming process on deciding what to pack and what not to pack. I know that the less stuff I have the more easier every moving will be. Thanks for the pilgrim thought, because that is sooo true. We are pilgrims and need to keep our eyes on the eternal rather than the worldly. you are an answer to my prayers because I prayed for something/someone who could tell me about one of the quotes you have posted: -live simply so you can simply live. Thsnk you, Andrea Dear Lindsay,

This is a subject that has been on my heart lately. My husband and I have both felt a call to missions, though we don't know in what capacity. I don't tend to struggle with holding on to things, but I do struggle with my attachment to my family. I have a hard enough time living 10 hours away, let alone in another country. However, God has been helping me there. It's never easy to say goodbye when we leave after a visit, but it is hurting less every time. I believe He is preparing me for something later, whether it be going overseas or simply not moving back home. He is always taking care of us, isn't He? Take care! Wonderful post.
