Dirty and Clean

(I don't know what I actually just did on the post before this, but there's nothing there. haha. That's me for ya'!)

Just wanted to tell you a quick thought that I think that we can apply to our lives at one point or another.
I was sweeping and cleaning our house yesterday. I couldn't believe how our house was so dusty and dirty, just without going 4 days without sweeping and mopping it!
My point is that this is like our spiritual lives. Especially like mine lately, which is hard to admit. When we don't saturate ourselves in His word daily and surround ourselves with spiritual things and take Christ out of the picture, things get dirty. Real dirty.
While our outside physical appearance we fix everyday and make things look perfect, the inside(spiritually) is rotting away.
I am so thankful that Christ washes us whiter than snow. You see, He is like the broom and mop, He cleans us up, polishes us, and makes us smell good with the aroma of Christ.

"First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be clean."
~ Matthew 23:26
