The Message; Clean!

Faith 1 Minute

My heart was dirty, my soul was in tatters. But Your heart, Jesus Your heart saw clean; Your love fixed what needed mending, a dirty rag. My glass half empty thinking, shattered; my theology, broken. God’s love restores my broken faith, piece by piece; a soul once dead, in Christ lives again. The beating heart within my chest, alive with a destination; deeper!

When all we see is imperfections, through Christ; God sees them as beautiful. When we feel we’re not worthy, Jesus shows us; that it was never about being worthy, but about being loved. When we stumble, and even when we fall; we may think that we’ve once again become too dirty. But Jesus’ love will help us believe, that the dirt is still washed away; we’re still clean!

Our dirty rags; washed, scrubbed, cleaned, purified. God’s love is forever washing; our hearts, forever washed within His sacrifice. Cleansed by His Amazing Grace; Mercy, is what forever makes us clean. Jesus, there’s nothing too dirty; no sin, that Your love can’t make clean. We may not be worthy, Thank You, Jesus! Our heart has been washed; um, forever made clean!

“Because we have these promises, dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that can defile our body or spirit. And let us work toward complete holiness because we fear God.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭7:1‬ ‭NLT‬‬

  3. 1 Peter 4:8 reminds us “Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.” “Love covers all wrong” Proverbs 10:12 Jesus took our place, the finished work on the cross. The blood that Jesus shed that none would be lost. The blood of Jesus washes and cleanest us of all unrighteousness, making us worthy. That is amazing, So grateful.
    Thank you Warren for sharing this message; Paul wrote with such great passion ending I Corinthians 6 with reminding reminding them that their bodies are the Temple of the Living God. I Corinthians 7:1 NLT Because we have these promises, dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that can defile our body or spirit. And let us work toward complete holiness because we fear (honor) God. —Crucifying of flesh.

  7. ‘God’s love restores my broken faith, piece by piece’
    Amen! I needed to read this. Gods timing is impecable. At this time with my health down and still recovering from thyroid surgery, I find it hard at times to keep the faith and eyes focused on Him.
