DAY 24

WE ARE LIKE A CLOTHES

John 1:29-30

Most often than not, we find washing soiled clothes tiring. But sometimes we are like those soiled clothes. We are soiled when we sin, so we need washing. And God is our washer.

But what if we’re not just soiled, but stained? Of course, we need a stain remover. God has a way of removing our stain. He let us undergo thorough cleaning until we’re like new and fresh again. He never allows us to remain dirty and to live in sin. God even sacrificed His own Son to cleanse us. Even in His process of cleaning us, He showed unconditional love.

To complete the washing out of our sins, He has given us the Bible, which I can compare to a fabric conditioner. It enables us to see and know God’s word that can give us a pleasing aroma before God.

Are you happy and confident now that we are already clean and good-scented because God has made us so? Let’s remain clean and good scented for Him. Let us never let go of His teachings and enjoy His great love for us.
