“Generous in love—God, give grace! Huge in mercy—wipe out my bad record. Scrub away my guilt, soak out my sins in your laundry.” Psalm 51:1-2
It’s Monday and laundry day at my house. Over the years, I’ve sorted, folded, and stacked more shirts, pants, socks, and underwear than I would have cared to. I’ve even found articles of clothing that weren’t dirty in the dirty clothes hamper. Humph - silly teenagers!
As mundane as the laundry is, I try to give it spiritual value. You’re probably asking can doing laundry really be a spiritual experience. Yes, it can!
Use the wash process for a time to thank God that He washes you clean and blots out your sin. He is the true Launderer who never tires of doing your laundry. He does wash everyday. Hallelujah!
I’ve got to go put another load of wash in – time to have a chat with God!
