2 Corinthians 7:1 Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, and make holiness perfect in the fear of God.
It is amazing how much scrap one can accumulate over the years, yesterday was a bit of a clean up day so all the old scrap metal laying around was collected and loaded; off to the scrap metal dealer. The first load was 400kg and the old Bakkie did well travelling with the load, the second load included an old gas stove and refrigerator and the load seemed heavier, amazingly also 400kg. The last load included old rusted barbed wire and a heavy kitchen canopy and the Bakkie took even more strain, amazingly 320kg. We are very pleased with getting all the scrap off the property because it just becomes a place where vermin make there home. At a rand a kilogram we made a much needed R1120.00 getting a R1.00 per kg for the scrap.
There were two things that I learnt, first is that one has to trust the honesty of the person at the weigh bridge even though a weighbridge slip is not produce and second it is better to get rid of scrap sooner, because it is a major job when you have to take 1120kg away.
I also suppose that in ones life we also accumulate spiritual and emotional scrap and every now and again we should also take it to the scrap dealer and get rid of it. When we realise that when it comes to the issues of our life, our best scrap dealer is Jesus Christ, He has already paid the price for all our scrap, all we have to do is to take it to Him on a regular basis, and so we keep our spiritual and emotional yards clean through prayer. When the scrap is removed there is no place for sin to make itself comfortable in us.
Be encouraged to get rid of all your scrap.
Point to ponder: Jesus is a great scrap dealer.
Question to consider: Have you got any scrap to get rid of?
