On Saturday, our church had a 'work day'. Volunteers came for an hour, two, or more. I worked for a bit over an hour. My job was to use a Q-tip and touch up scratches on sanctuary pews with stain. Worked well.

As I worked, I noticed that I had dropped a couple drops of the stain on the right sleeve of my orange sweatshirt. Hmm......

I knew. No amount of Oxy Clean or Spray & Wash would take it out. It was there to stay. Time to downgrade the sweatshirt to 'everyday' status.

Made me think of our 'spots' and 'stains'; doing things we shouldn't have done or said. Not doing things God has intended us to do.

As part of His 'Forever Family', we can ask for the 'spot remover' only God can provide! And those 'infractions' are removed from our lives.

What a plan! His idea! We didn't/don't deserve it, but we can get it!

"Sprinkle me with the cleansing blood and I shall be clean again. Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow."

~ Psalm 51:7 LAB
