At our office, there are those with the sparkly clean and always-new cars, and those of us with the racked-up mileage and the questionable condition of cleanliness... I think it's a personality style type of thing. My car has 215,000 miles and smells just a little bit. But I don't want to get a new car yet. This one still rocks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444751395260978471.post-77588041117108290212011-09-18T13:56:20.235-04:002011-09-18T13:56:20.235-04:00I didn't know my car has a twin! Seriously, I ...I didn't know my car has a twin! Seriously, I live out of my car. Just the other day I was dropping my daughter off at kindergarten and when the teacher in the carpool lane opened the car door I cringed. "Please let all the stuff littering the floorboard stay inside the vehicle," was my initial thought. I guess I do care what other people think but maybe in small doses this keeps me accountable because before I picked her up from school that day I cleaned out my car. The teacher may not have even noticed but I did and my children did (they both cmemted on how clean my car was). <br /><br />There are other things that I probably shouldn't care about how people see me but I do. Those are the insecurities that I face but I think often times we think we are being judged when in reality others don't notice or even care.csyustenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13326948839309698858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444751395260978471.post-24942111127764141362011-09-18T13:07:10.388-04:002011-09-18T13:07:10.388-04:00Oh, Susan!

And because I felt it, I surely must worry what people think. :)<br /><br />I live in an affluent area, so I've always felt concerned about what others think of my house when they visit. It's simple, compared to most people's homes I've visited around here. I don't have nice furniture. I don't have it nicely decorated. We live and work in it every single day without a break, so it is worn down, chipped, and messy. <br /><br />Yes, I am concerned. But I am letting the Lord teach me many things about perspective, contentment, generosity, and comfort in Him...and more.Ann Kroekerhttp://annkroeker.comnoreply@blogger.com
