Activating Faith in everyday life
Review – Repurposed and UpCycled LIfe by Michelle Rayburn
We’ve all taken a garment out of the closet that looks fine—until we put it on. Then the color makes us look sallow, the waistband is too tight or too loose or it or it just isn’t us anymore? We should toss it, yet we put it back 
on the shelf to play the same scene over and over.
Humor is the spoon Michelle Rayburn uses to dish out funny, inspirational and applicable personal stories that inspire us to clean our spiritual and emotional houses, give up the guilt, and to embrace the positive aspects of our current lives. Her experienced guidance helps to examine 11 negative types of baggage, to peel away the trash and look for the treasure in every area– all those things we kid ourselves into thinking no one else knows about.
Emotional garbage, guilt and bitterness out – healing and changed attitudes and perspectives in. Each chapter is short enough to finish in a 10-15 minute devotional time, but has enough depth to keep you pondering – and asking yourself if this (action, habit, emotion, reaction) will build up your life – or not. If not, Rayburn empowers the reader to “carry out the trash,” and keep only what builds you up so you can turn and build up others.
Well written, engaging and practical, this little book is a treasure you will want to glean from time and again.
