Laundry.....

Cleaning out the three youngest girls' room today.  Their constant whine about having nothing to wear was true.....all the dirty clothes were in the floor of their closet or under their beds!! Don't ya just love their "style" of cleaning?  Maybe it's not a "style" maybe it's more a philosophy.  I was just thinking that I kinda do that too, just in different areas, and it always comes back to bite me in the bum.  Something happens, and rather than deal with it right away, sort my emotions, forgive immediately, I file it away for when I have "time do deal with it".  But I never do.  It just sorta festers and rears it's ugly head at the most inopportune times.   God is giving me another chance to allow  Him to do the work in me that He needs to do.  Like an old Petra song said, "This test of your faith will last, as long as it takes to pass."  So true. Maybe I need to learn to take it immediately to Him, kinda "do not pass go, do not collect $200". 

Hebrews 12:15

Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁵Exercise foresight and be on the watch to look [after one another], to see that no one falls back from and fails to secure God's grace (His unmerited favor and spiritual blessing), in order that no root of resentment (rancor, bitterness, or hatred) shoots forth and causes trouble and bitter torment, and the many become contaminated and defiled by it--

Maybe Elly, Kyri and Clara  and I need to learn this in a more practical way.....hiding your dirty laundry only makes it harder to haul it all to the laundry room, and He sees it all anyway.......

May our hearts and our clothes be clean........ ;-)

Blessings...

Only Because of Jesus,
