Very cluttered. Sometimes I can't figure out if I've got a lot of projects going on at the same time, or just really messy. I tend to over-religeous-ise all that I do. What I mean by that is everything turns into an issue that I need to take to God. I start worrying about how the work of my hands will look to others, how God will view it, and what people will think. So I start to self-doubt and think about how I might fail. But Philippians says this, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." It's the simple truths of our faith, the ones I found so easy to grab as a child, that trip me up now. Do you find it hard to give everything to God and stop worrying about it?
Through any trials or speedbumps in life, I remind myself to always trust in God and let him be the perfector of any work I do, so it is not I who receives the glory, but him.
