I’m loving the Spring weather! The mild days and cool evenings are just perfect! Don’t you wish we could bottle this season, put a cork in it, and open it up later this summer when the heat is sweltering?
Spring reminds me of new beginnings and creates a desire to get things looking and feeling fresh around the house. I guess that’s why we call it “spring-cleaning.” Don’t get me wrong. I’m not going overboard, but I did take some time yesterday to clean and organize my bedroom closet.
The Lord has also been speaking to me about getting my “spiritual house” in order, so I have been seeking Him about all the places where some spiritual “Spring-Cleaning” is necessary.
Just like David in Psalm 139, I am asking the Lord to reveal my heart’s condition and shine a bright light on the dusty cobwebs. The verse reads: “Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties. See if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”
Will you join me in asking the Lord to show us all the things in our lives that need to GO and all the things that need to GROW? What do I need to toss out, and what do I need to nurture in my spiritual journey?
Prayer: Lord, you see my desire to be more like You. I ask you to shine the light of the Holy Spirit on the dark corners of my heart to expose anything in me that is not pleasing to you. Uncover the weights and distractions that slow me down in my journey. Clean me up, Lord, so I can be the woman of God that you have called me to be. Amen.
At a recent Women’s Meeting, I spoke about Getting Your House in Order. I have downloaded a PDF copy of the notes here if you would like a copy. Thanks, my friend! Just click on the link below to download.
