Mondays are my clean the house days. On top of dusting, I do the floors, the bathroom and the laundry. I find great satisfaction at the end of it all: to look around and see that all is clean. I especially love it when the sun is out and light fills the house, confirming that dust and dirt are thoroughly gone. It tires me out, but I really am very satisfied.
I suspect that God has the same sense of satisfaction when He cleans us up. I imagine that when He looks at us and sees that the dirt of sin or false understanding have been removed, that our original colours and beauty are able to shine without obstruction or contamination, it brings His heart much joy. And satisfaction.
“Create in me a clean heart, O God.”
~ Psalm 51:10 ~
