Removing the Dirt
Yesterday I started cleaning on the roof of the motorhome in preparation for applying a new coat of rubber roofing.
It had been a year since I had put the last coat of roofing on and quite a bit of dirt had accumulated.
The sides of the motorhome had nasty black trails from the top to the bottom from the run off on the roof once I was done.
The roof was now white again!
I smiled to myself as I thought about the word of God.
Psalms 51:7 KJV Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
David was pleading to be cleansed.
He asks the Lord to purge him with hyssop to make him clean and to wash him to make him whiter than snow. Amen?
To purge meant to purify by removing a stain.
I had removed the stains from the top of the roof, and it was white again!
But, once I had finished with the roof, I could see the worn spots and some cracks that were going to need some attention.
Today, I plan on putting on the new coat of white rubber roofing.
The new coat will fill in the small cracks and worn spots on the roof.
When I am finished, the whole roof will be white as snow and the cracks and worn spots will be covered!
This also reminds me of the living word of God.
1 John 1:7 KJV But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Yes! The blood of Christ cleans us up and COVERS the sin! Amen?
May you seek the Lord today to cleanse your heart and make you new! Amen?
Psalms 51:10 KJV Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
Have a blessed day
