It's time to do some spring cleaning! You would think I am going to go through all the closets, drawers and any other place stuff collects in my house, organize and get rid of the junk & other things that I no longer use.
Well...I do mean that...sorta...
I'm going through my life, my spiritual life, opening all the closets, drawers & other places to God saying, "What's in here that isn't pleasing to You? What is holding me back from pursuing You with an undivided heart? What attitudes, thoughts, habits & desires need to go?"
"Investigate my life, O God, find out everything about me; Cross-examine and test me, get a clear picture of what I'm about;"
-Psalm 139:23 The Message
"...let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith..."
-Hebrews 12:1-2 NKJV
"...dear friends, let's make a clean break with everything that defiles or distracts us, both within and without. Let's make our entire lives fit and holy temples for the worship of God."
-2 Corinthians 7:1 The Message
God, I'm ready now! Show me the thoughts, attitudes, feelings, hurts, pain, plans & desires that need to go, so I can make room for the new things, the better plans, the more abundant life that You have for me!
"I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. When you call on Me, when you come and pray to Me, I'll listen.When you come looking for Me, you'll find Me. Yes, when you get serious about finding Me and want it more than anything else, I'll make sure you won't be disappointed." God's Decree."
-Jeremiah 29:11-14 The Message
