Today at church the Pastor said that we should be windows that allow others to see into our lives and to see how God is at work in our lives. However, windows get dirty. If they are not cleaned, the view from the window can become distorted or even blocked. Our lives can be windows for others to see God, but we need to be sure they are clean windows!
Our lives can become dirty or distorted when we try to do too much on our own. We may try to clean the windows or to put up window dressings that make things look good from the outside. If our lives are not in line with God's will, the view through our windows will not be true. We need to allow God to clean our windows - to redeem and renew us, to help us be what He wants us to be. Once we are cleansed, then we can serve as examples of the power of the living God!
Allow God to cleanse you so you can be a window for others to see His power, grace, and mercy!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your cleansing power in my life. Help me to live according to Your will so others can see Your power, grace, and mercy. Through Jesus, my Savior, I pray, amen.
