Clearing Out the Clutter
I’m sure each one of us have those little places where we hide our clutter; for some it may the garage, or a junk drawer or maybe you have even bought a little shed in which to store all your ‘things’ that you just know you will have a use for it later. Many times we are afraid to open those places of ‘storage’, because we are ashamed for other people to see the clutter!
Periodically we need to set aside the time to clean up the clutter.

Periodically we need to set aside the time to clean up the clutter.
Because we are in the world, our hearts and minds also accumulate clutter from those, we associate with daily. Unknowingly we pick up ungodly thoughts and attitudes. Sometimes we develop the "It’s All About Me" attitude. Before long, our hearts and minds are no longer clean and orderly. And while we think we can hide the mess, be certain, it will eventually show!
I Corinthians 6:19
"What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not of your own?"
Perhaps it’s time to set aside a spiritual workday and, with His help, get to work clearing out the clutter. Discard those thoughts of bitterness. Bag up and throw out the old patterns of sensual thoughts. Organize your attitudes. Fill your heart with the beauty of God’s Word. Make it clean to the core and leave it open for all to see!
More like the Master I would ever be
More of His meekness, more humility;
More zeal to labor, more courage to be true,
More consecration for work He bids me do.---------Gabriel
Don’t let the Spirit reside in a cluttered heart.
Take some time to clean it up today!
And remember it’s not all about you but, ‘It’s All About God’!
Love, Gramma Weav
