- SERMON THAT MOTIVATED ME LIKE CRAZY: • The Danger of Worldly ...
Come along with me as I minimalize for Jesus! Today I did some major decluttering and cleaning my room... I was really inspired after watching a sermon on how americans are so obsessed with STUFF. I was convicted, so I started going through my piles of "things." It has helped me grow closer to God through the process. I am so thankful I get to take you along with me :) i hope this gives you some cleaning motivation!
All glory to God!

#decluttering #cleaning
I’ve been in the process of minimizing the past few years, and one thing I learned about the “What if I need this later,” mentality is that it is the Deceiver talking. “What if I need this ONE DAY,” means you’re focusing on the future and not trusting God to give you that item back when you need it. In the instance of the corkboard, consider the price of rebuying it. They aren’t that expensive and you might need a bigger size, or that one breaks while you’re waiting. As simple and corny as it sounds, give that board to God and trust that you can buy one later if and when you need it. God is never ever going to leave you without anything you need. Even something as simple as a corkboard.
Bethany Platt wow!! thank you. what a refreshing and helpful look at this
Wow that was so refreshing to hear too!!
I am 37 years old and have two children. Hearing this message from someone so young is incredibly inspiring, THANK YOU! :)
I LOVE how you ALWAYS put God’s Truth in your videos & so admire how you were so sensitive to what the Spirit was showing you from that sermon! Cant wait to listen to it! 💛
yayyy! Thank you friend! Also, let me know what you think of that sermon! It was FIRE!
I would DEFINITELY love to see a video on your favorite books!
Yayyyyy!!! okay :))
I love what you shared about worshiping Jesus all day long even in the mundane tasks. I was praying for God to show me ways I can worship him throughout the day and when you mentioned it in this video I was so glad! ❤️
"Pray and never give up" Luke 18:1💓
amennnn!
I love the part with Jesus on the shelf! Wanting him to be the center. That is beautiful and looking at that part - feels refreshing!
Awww pls do a book collection/ fav books❤️❤️
YAYYY! OKAY :)))
I want to start by saying thank you. Near the end of this video you talked about how our normal daily activities don't have to be separated from worship, which is something I have never thought of before. I'm currently in a tough spot in my life, and I'm optimistic about growth in my faith and how it connects with all that I do. So... taking your advice; I thank God for bringing me to your video to learn and grow, the ability to have internet and a computer to seek Him through others nationwide, and for eyes & ears to see and listen to you speak. Thank you for being an inspiration to not only myself, but the other 340k subscribers on this channel and potentially more beyond.
It's literally been hanging over my head all day that I need to clean my room and closet and then you post this. Maybe this was the Lord's way of telling me I need to get to it 😅😅
Great video. God bless! ❤
hahahhaa!! yayyyy! Glad I was able to encourage you :)
This is something that I was struggling with for a while. I was in a phase where I just wanted more and more. I would seek happiness from materialistic stuff and at the end I only felt overwhelmed. Our happiness should come from Jesus alone because HE IS enough! Thank you for making this video! You have inspired me to declutter my room! ❤😁😉
AMEN AMEN AMEN! YOU GO GIRL
Love this video! I love how you used decluttering as an example of letting go of things that are hindering with our walk with God! Don't let God stop using you. Happy that you're back!💛💛
Wow this just came out on my news feed. And everything you said has crossed my mind this week. 😭
I would love to see a video on not just your books you liked from college but favorite christian books!
okay :) thank you for the suggestion!
Yes...The Lord has been convicting me of excess as well. Praising Him for this and how He renews us day by day. I could be your mom lol but I'm so encouraged by both your channels. Such wisdom you and your sister have for your age. God is so good! Ps. I became a born again Christian 7 years ago. By God's amazing grace. ❤
So I just finished school and I started to declutter my room today and then this video popped up. I was like "Sister we think alike!"
Luved it!!^-^
Luv you guys😊💗
awwww YAYYYYYYY!! You go girl!!!!!! You got this!!!!
Love this, I am inspired! Cleaning and decluttering is so, so refreshing!
girl yes! It soooo is :)
Amen. Christ never gets old. My house needs a lot of work, but Christ renews us day by day.
Just decluttered the kitchen. That was good/ a lot. Theres still more that needs to be done.
Yesss do a video on the books!
yay!!!!
Absolutely... I think as I buy new items of clothing, I need to definitely let loose of the ones which I never wear. I need to declutter to feel closer to the Lord🤗
You are adorrrrable!!
This is exactly what i was looking for this morning! There's so many sweet cleaning channels but i need motivation to do all things for the Lord, thank you!
I too started to minimalize this past summer, it really does make life more simple and give us more time to focus on God ♡
I love your sweet spirit. I've got mounds of stuff and that is from fear of not having enough and that God will not provide but He will..🙏 Thank you for your honesty ....
Wow, great teaching on how cleaning, exercise, etc. can be worship - if we do these things with a godly mindset. I learned that many years ago, but over time had forgotten. Thanks for speaking to me from the college years! Your perspective is a refreshing Christian challenge! Good job decluttering, too! Yes, Americans often have too much stuff!!!
That's an awesome word!!! So the mundane things as glory unto the Lord, powerful young lady!
hi ASH, this video encouraged me to LET GO my dolls ( AMERICAN GIRL ) and my doll house
I never used it and what you said was CORRECT Americans are very accumulative in every way.
so now I am letting go!!!!!!!!!!
thank you ASH for everything you do for us!!!!!!!!!
sooooo inspiring!!!!!!!!!!!!!
byeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this video. Your so encouraging and wise beyond your years. Would love to see a book video
Thank you friend! To God be the glory :))
Amazing! Love your videos :) Keep up the good work! To God be all the glory!
amen!
I have no doubt I am wayyyy older than your followers but I honestly find your channel so inspiring!❤️❤️👏🏼 Love how on fire for the Lord you are and how His light shines so brightly thru you.🙏🏻☀️☀️☀️ I agree with you about stuff and how we don’t need to be bound to the things of this world! I will listen to that sermon now cause I can always learn more.😘
YAY! Thank you so so so much for this encouraging comment! :) It made my day! Let me know what you think of that sermon :)
I loved this Ashley! It's so true...we have too much stuff. I've spent the last couple of months de cluttering my house. It's amazing how much better it is and how good it feels. I tried not to think about everything when I was making piles of stuff to donate. I knew if I put too much thought in it the process would stall and I would stop. Some things were hard to get rid of but I did it! I have a craft room so my objective was to organize it too. Tomorrow I'm finishing that up. It does give us greater joy and less worry when we have less stuff weighing us down in life. Thanks for this video!
Oh my goodness please make a video on your favorite books! I also go to a Bible college and can TOTALLY relate to these books strengthening your walk with God! Would love to see your recommendations! ❤️
This is a little late haha but I love how real you are on camera, you are so simple and honest and I love watching your videos because you don't make your life seem perfect or better than others you are an inspiration
Thank you for teaching us that even the every day things can be done to the glory of God.😊
Praise God!
Thank you for the inspiration! Very thoughtful young lady. Thankful for your stand in the Lord!
Thank you Vivian! Praise God!
You go girl !!! You just showed God you care more about him then your stuff which is 👍 great!!! He sure loves you more than you know to perch all of the things we collect over the years. Personally I'm a huge hogger and all my stuff is in my storage unit. I'm staying with my friend right now with my husband. I just recently went through all my stuff and only got rid of just a bag of clothes. Feels great but I know I need to get rid of much more!!!
I just did some decluttering tonight,and my room looks SO much better. God lead me to your vid.
Dearest, you’re a blessing to me.
I truly love that video!! amazing how you always manage to say true stuff and how you make me want to focus on essential things as well!
aw praise the Lord! Thank you so much for this encouraging message!
I watched the sermon it was so moving I’ve sent the meaning to my son in London.You can feel this mans heart.Everyone should watch this
Do you remember the sermon and where I could watch I know this video is old but if you reply that would be awesome! Thanks
Thanks for your Christ-centered inspiration !
Just love your videos!I've been finding decluttering so fun and therapeutic! You are so good to always point things back to Jesus! And would totally love the books video!
I usually donate things that I'm not ever going to use again. If they are nice things then I sell them.I went through a apartment fire. After that I try keeping everything simple. We are happier when we keep things simple. Desk looks great. Bookcase looks good. Lavender smells so good. Your room looks good.
You are so encouraging and inspiring thankyou!!!!God shines thru you so much!
Thank you! Glory to God!
This video inspired me to declutter my room! So inspirational, thanks for sharing!
Can you do a video on "How to stay on your walk with God and blocking satans attacks (mentally and emotionally)", because I'm getting my confirmation this year (baptism) and I'm absolutely excited. I got saved by his wonderful grace this March and its such an amazing feeling🙌❤. You and Tay's videos are so inspiring to me❤.
Loved this video! Decluttering/minimising has been on my mind recently & this just really touched me! I put too much value into material things, thinking its going to provide me some type of joy or contentment...when in reality I should be seeking God & His will/Word for those feelings!
11:54 (re: Dilemma “I could use it again but I don’t need it now”) I remember an organizing guru say once that if you don’t need it now but you think you can use it later and it’s in good shape donate it or sell it. If you need one again In the future you can buy another. If it’s not in the best of shape and you don’t need it now then trash it.
It may seem “wasteful” to rebuy what you bought but chances are you won’t need it again and if and when you do, you just buy another of whatever it is.
Another guru also said that it’s taking up rental space in your area. I never really thought of it but all of our stuff is renting the space we put the items in. Do we really need all these “tenants” taking up our area “real estate” or is time for an eviction?! 😁
You always give me great ideas and brighten my day. Thank you❤
i was decluttering this entire week and i was becoming unmotivated, the holy spirit knew i needed this !!
I'm so happy you are back!! Can't wait to see all the amazing videos you put out!!
Yay!! Thank you Elli! :))))
Vision board !! "Write the vision, make it plain."
I am currently reading David Platt’s book right now called radical! So good, I highly recommend! ☺️
ohhhh thank you so much for that book recomendation! I will check it out :)
You have encouraged me. I have started my in-depth bible study. Love you and your videos 💕
*1) Do you know when your next order of prayer journals will out?*
*2) maybe you could put your notes on the cork board?*
YES! Please share about the books!! Always looking for new stuff to read.
Okay! Will do :)
Loved this video!!😀 In my Sunday school class we are doing a David Platt study about being able to get up,sell your stuff and follow Jesus if he would happen to ask u to!!!😊
wow!! Amennnn!!! I wish I could have done that study with you!!! haha :)) sounds amazing!
😊u guys inspire me to deepen my faith! Thank you!!:)
Uploaded on my birthday!! Thank you, I needed this!! 🙏🏽💖
happy birthday!!
I love yalls chanell so much i watched you how to read through your whole bible video and it helped me a lot btw I’m 13
wowwwwww! That is AMAZING!!!! You go girl! Keep it up :) God loves you so so so much!
Yes please!!
Use the cork board to create a dream board. Use it for to do lists, use it to map out your goals. Our favorite quotes on it. Make it so every time you see it, you feel nothing but positivity. Use it as another tool, and it no longer becomes clutter. Think “how can I use this to better myself” and if there’s no reason..Toss it
Yes a book video would be awesome!!!! Love the way your room looks! 👍 its amazing how things can start to pile up and then we’re like “how did this happen?!” But i would keep the cork board (saves from buying it later if you need one)
Love your videos!! Yes!! You should do the book video!!
Yes doing a book collection would be amazing!! :)
i loved this video and i recently found this amazing channel! this really helped me understand him more and realized i can make anything into growing closer to god.
hi, I really admire your transparency talking and sharing about your daily devotion to God. The Lord bless you more and hopefully will do the same encouragement to others 😘
keep it up,
i'm obsessed with you (-': i love your positivity & how wise you are... i always learn a new thing about the Lord everytime i watch your videos x
Such an inspiration 🙌🏼🙏🏻
Yes please!!! Show us some of your favorite books from college!!🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
I watched the video you suggested. Wow. I am getting the stuff out of my life. Re-focusing.

I HAVE 12 YEARS OLD!!!!!!
Would love to see a video on your favourite books 💕
will do:)
More video like these, please! And also do the video about your favourite books, I eould definitely love that.
This video really inspiried me ❤️
I love the paintings and portraits you have of Jesus + coffee. Where do you get them? That literally is my life just having a cup of coffee with Jesus and just having a conversation with Him. Now you got me into studying the Word and drinking lots of coffee throughout the day cause getting to know Jesus and obeying His will for my life have become my main focal point in life.
Loved this video so much, inspired me to clean and spend time with God in other ways 😁❣️
Yayyyy! So glad it inspired you :)
You did a Great job . Thanks for sharing with us
You are inspiration to Christian girls...
God bless you richly
I really liked this video!!! Could you do another one, based on cleaning/decluttering? Maybe on prayers you could pray for help in cleaning, so you don't get discouraged or frustrated!
I love that you have a typewriter!
Just got it for my birthday at a thrift store! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!
@@coffeeandbibletime
So cool! I l miss that clickety sound. And the oh-so-satisfying RIPPING paper out of it when you mess up, LOL!
Yes, please do a video on your books and teachings from college. A precursor to teaching the Word of God that lasts forever. God bless you and enjoy your summer!
Glad you're back! I love your videos! I've been subscribed for about a year now! Your channel inspired me to make my own Christian channel. Keep up the good work!❤
I checked out your videos and they are SOOO CUTE! Keep up the amazng work friend :)
@@coffeeandbibletime Thanks!
I love windows without curtains!! My neighbors leave on a light outside, so we have blackout curtains... At least they're good for heating and cooling also =)
I literally always struggle with whether I should keep something or not because I don't want to be considered a hoarder but I think that you should keep it because Everytime that I threw something away that I thought I might need in the future I ended up needing.
I’m new to your TH-cam channel and I love it😃
This is so good! I’m going to find time to clean my room now:)
Keep the cork board! And I would love to see a video on your favorite books!
Yes, please share the books you read for college!!! That would be awesome! Love you girls! ❤️
praying for all of you 💛
Yessssssss books!!!!!
I feel like God brought me to this video for a really good reason, thank you for making it, I’m so inspired and you have a new subbie 💛
oh man i thought i was the only one who had a room that looked somewhat like this.. thank you for sharing!!
I love your videos!! I have been struggling with studying and procrastination. Can you do a video on what courses you do and how you study?
Bless your heart. You are the sweetest thing! 💖
And WOW I just
Watched the sermon...powerful
right?? :)
The minimalists have the 20 20 rule (or something like that). If you're unsure and you can get it within 20 minutes, under 20 dollars, and within 20 miles just ditch it and you can always replace if you feel the need for it someday. I am a master declutterer, I feel myself much less anxious and overwhelmed when my house is neat, tidy, and clutter free. Good luck!
Yes this is so good! I am also working on minimalising the amount of stuff that I own (and trying not to buy more stuff haha..). I would love it if you could make more videos on this topic! Definitely want to see a video of you decluttering those drawers in your desk!! and would love to hear about your experiences etc as you minimise your posessions and how that goes for you :)
I would LOVE a books you loved from your first year of bible college video! 👏🏻
yayy! Thanks for letting me know :)
You are amazing!! I loved this video and you're so adorable my favorite part was the center of your room and life. It HAS to be Jesus. I am in the middle of decluttering my entire HOME. Lol and it's not easy but like you I was convicted of my "stuff" and always the desire for more more more. When does it stop? The clutter gives me anxiety and so much more work to clean. Anyways this video was 2 years ago have you updated since then? Would love to know where your journey has led you ❤
Yes please share the books
Your room is GORGEOUS!!!💖💖💖💖 and I love how you just apply Gods truth to everyday life; it is seriously so inspiring! My problem is that I focus too much on making my environment look great and my room and my supplies for my devotions and everything... And I forget my actual maker and forget to even spend time with Him. Any tips? But seriously; your from looks awesome!!! ( Btw with the bookshelf; I tried putting books on my shelf to and it ended up looking so cluttered 😂same problem!!!!! so I ended up just taking almost all of them off and it looked so great! I would just put them in a bin and put them under your bed or in a closet or something. That worked great for me. ) anyway ; thanks for everything; love ya!
Hi Anna! Thank you so much for this advice and encouragement!! You are so amazing! We love you!
This video spoke to my life , just came in the right time! 😭❤️ Thank you Lord!
You can use the board for stick notes for homework, a to do list kind of thing, put some Bible verses to memorize!
Yay for minimalism! 1 Timothy 6:6
YAYYYYYY! PRAISE GOD THIS VIDEO HELPED YOU!!!
