Spring Cleaning

Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties. And see if there is any wicked way in me and lead me in the way everlasting.
Psalm 139: 23-24
I decided to designate today to clean my office. It was well beyond the point of cluttered and verging on tornado-like conditions. I couldn’t put it off any longer. When I began, though very messy, I really didn’t see much to throw away. I just couldn’t see what I could part with or where to begin.
After studying the room for a few minutes, I picked up a garbage bag and began slowly placing a few things in. I noticed myself finding it easier and easier to throw things away and by the end I found myself with 3 garbage bags full of non-essential waste.
It got me thinking about my own life. What areas of my life, what areas of your life need de-cluttered? What habits and attitudes need thrown in the trash? I suppose as I ask God to search my life, I may not see much at first, but I trust in the end God will show me several big trash bags of non-essential waste He’d like me to part with.
The hard part is asking Him to search.
Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties. And see if there is any wicked way in me and lead me in the way everlasting.
Psalm 139: 23-24
