“You Pharisees are so careful to clean the outside of the cup and the dish but inside you are filthy- full of greed and wickedness.” Luke 11:39
Each morning as we prepare for our day we brush our teeth, take a shower, comb our hair and do all of the other things that will make us presentable to those around us during the day. We want to not only make a good impression on others, but we want to be sure that we are clean and not dirty. In doing so, we often forget our spirit being. At what point to we clean the inside as well as the outside. When do we prepare ourselves spiritually for the day? When do we make the inside as clean as the outside? When do we regenerate our spirit and talk with our God? When do we read his Holy Word and meditate in order to prepare for any attacks of the world during the day. Are we the same on the inside as we are on the outside? Preparing spiritually is as important, if not more important, than preparing for our physical day. It is important that think of Jesus first in our day and do the things that are going to prepare us for what is to come. We are to be prepared to spread his word and live our lives to honor our great Savior. If we do not renew our spirits everyday, then we are leaving the door open for the enemy to creep in. Let us stay strong with prayer, praise and meditation of his word, just as we prepare physically for each day. PRAISE THE LORD INN ALL THINGS!
