My word for
June 26th is VACUUM
I vacuum every other day. Since I have a dog that sheds, the hair drives me
crazy. I vacuum everywhere, under
everything and around everything.
I will even vacuum the furniture.
My vacuum has all those different attachments, one for floors, one for
small areas that are hard to reach, one for furniture, one for blinds, and one
for carpet. I use all of
them. I haven’t been able to
vacuum for a week, so I called Go Momma today and asked her if she could come
out and help me. She is a vacuum
freak also; she vacuums as much as I do.
While she vacuumed I dusted, cleaned the bathroom, and washed all the
laundry. There isn’t anything
better than clean floors, a clean bathroom, clean sheets, and clean
laundry. I am ready for the
week.
It is not just time to vacuum our homes, but to vacuum out
of our lives. Some of the dirt is
visible to the human eye. This
dirt is vacuumed up easily, just one swipe of the vacuum wand and up it goes. Then there is the dirt that you can’t
see. Those dust mites on the
furniture, the hair that blends in to the floor, or the dirt hidden underneath
those hard to reach places. The
utensils may have to be changed from one to the other to suck up this
mess. What a sucktacular time
vacuuming up the dirt that leaves our lives in disarray.
We need to be rid of the filth seen or unseen. To be healthy it is important to clean
around us. The filth in our lives
can weigh us down, trap us, or even make us sick. Through cleansing our surroundings, we are better able to do
what God wants us to do. The
cleaner our lives are the smoother our lives will be. It is a vital part of staying healthy to get rid of the
dirt. Cleaning the dirt means to rid
your mind of sadness, guilt, anger, resentment, dissatisfaction, the past and
any other negative aspects that hold us back. God doesn’t want anything to hold us back from fulfilling
His plan for us. Plug in your
vacuum and get to work.
Put freshener in your vacuum bag and clean the air. Remove all the dirt and dust particles
and find a fresh life with God. Vacuum the filth from your life, become fresh
and clean.
Dear Lord help us clean out our filth, removing the dust and
debris from our lives. We want
your presence in our lives and in our homes helping us to maintain
cleanliness. Open our eyes to see
what is filth. With You our lives
will be clean. During 2012 we
promise to remove the filth and live a clean life for You.
1 Peter 5:7
Casting all your care upon him for he careth for you.
