spring cleaning

God is really cleaning me...from inside out.
it's like becoming a baby again.
crying when your mom gives you a bath..
the water feels so cold and then too warm..
you're afraid the soap will get in your eyes...
it's annoying...tiring...
but once you're done...
mom rubs and pats your hair dry..
gently wipes each limb each part of your skin dry..
you feel so clean..you feel so right.
i'm not there yet..
probably won't be till i'm in Heaven..
but i feel my Father is really cleaning me.
it's not the best feeling..
but it's the best feeling to know He wants me to be clean..
and that He is willing to clean me..no matter how dirty i am..
no matter how much i whine..
He is willing to bathe me, scrub me, wash me, dry me..
over and over again.
clean me!!

1st lesson/reminder of 20s: "judge not, that you be not judged."
simple...but sometimes you forget you're judging.

note to self: when you are feeling down, read the card pamela gave you on your 20th birthday.

verse from momma:
the Lord your God is with you,
he is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
he will quiet you with his love,
he will rejoice over you with singing.
- zephaniah 3:17
