Time for a Load of Wash

“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 The Message

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!

Amazingly, it's time to put another load of wash in and have a chat with God!

This is so right on I have been reading about this for the past 2 days about talking to God even before and as you walk across a room to talk to someone that might be there all alone and how to let the Spirit lead you where you need to be for Him, you can even do this while washing clothes too.
