The dishwasher is never empty…
And let not their hearts be…
The washing machine is never empty…
And let not their souls be…
The finger prints are always there….
and let them be too….
FULL of LIFE.
I am using all of the things that often cause me tension, to be seen for what they really are.
A full house, full of little lives, full of big dreams, full of life….
Full of Christ…
full of love, joy, and peace…
If we focus on HIM.
Life is about so much more than the details. It is about glorifying Him in all we do and see Him in it all and giving thanks for it ALL.
Not just giving thanks for the obvious, but for it ALL.
Crumbs on the floor…means full bellies…
Messes in the family room…after a day full of imagination….
Toys scattered about the yard…after a full day of playing…
A schoolroom that is never empty of papers, crafts, and stuff…
because minds are filling up on knowledge…and I am privileged to teach my own…
and hopefully gaining wisdom…
Thank you Lord for a FULL life indeed…

Join me on my journey to clear the clutter as I am simply living...for Him! I am a homeschooling mom sharing about my faith, family, hobby-farm life, and Jesus. I am also an author and speaker and love sharing my journey with others- and I am all about keeping it real and authentic! Join me as I seek less of this world and more of Jesus!
Karen DeBeus is a homeschooling mom learning to live more simply and keep God at the center of it all. She is the author of three best-selling homeschooling books and writes at Simply Living for Him. She speaks nationally at homeschooling conventions and recently was a speaker at the Family Bible Conference in Washington, DC. Her passion is to help others clear the clutter from their lives, seek God first, and to encourage women and families to get in the Word every day.
In 2016, she founded the Simply Living for Him Retreat, which is a time of rest and renewal for all women seeking Jesus. She enjoys life on her hobby farm with her husband and four children. Together they are a work-at-home family pursuing a simple life with purpose and, above all, seeking to glorify God in all they do.
