When Your Life Feels Out of Control – Clean

April 24, 2009 by KimberlyE

The devil loves chaos, confusion, disorder, a mess in your life…

There are times where you feel nothing is in control in your life, even to the point that you haven’t put your clothes away from the laundry or your kitchen is in a shambles.

That devil enjoys to see you in a disarray. It pleases him…

…Well, I don’t know about you, but I don’t ever want to please the devil.

Leaving your home or workplace messy can keep that spirit of confusion and chaos around.

Not only will cleaning be good to straighten things out, it will give you one or two things in your life you can look at and feel peace about mentally.

This will leak into other areas of your life and reverse your confusion!

Clean out your messy drawers, your discombobulated cupboards, put those dishes in the dishwasher, put your clothes away that were laundered.

Then, just work on things from there – build on that!

I hope this was an Encouragement to you on Christian FirePower! Until next time…

Tidy Up Your Mess,

Kimberly Edwards
