Spiritual Spring Cleaning

It’s “Spring Cleaning” time around my house and I like thinking about spiritual parallels.  What can “Spiritual Spring Cleaning” look like?  Here are some ideas:

·         Take some extended prayer time simply for confession.  Go as far back in your experiences as needed to really come clean.

·         Keep short accounts (i.e. don’t let dishes sit in the sink overnight – they attract cockroaches).  Are there people you need to forgive or grudges you are holding?

·         Take inventory of the physical space in which you often meet with God to read your Bible, pray, etc.  Is it cluttered?  Could it be more inviting?

·         Are there habits in your life that are keeping God at arm’s length?  What lifestyle changes need to be made?

Philippians 4:8, “Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things.”
