Psalm 51:10 NASB "Create in me a clean heart, God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me."It didn't take long but when done, I found a renewed joy! Today's verse, while rather simple, shares a prayer that we all should pray! Coming back from the job site, I kept just putting my tools here and there, not back where they belong. It got to the point that my tool site was a mess, tools everywhere. I decided to clean it up, to begin to put things where they needed to go, and the more I cleaned up, the more joy I felt in getting things where they needed to be. In life, we can keep just putting things off, shoving them here and there but one day, we will have to clean things up. Asking God to create in us a clean heart means getting rid of the garbage and putting things in order and we will find that we will be renewed with a refreshed spirit. Don't let the clutter of the world creep in to the cleaned heart of walking in the Lord! peace, tom
