WHAT'S IN YOUR SPONGE?
There are 5 sponges laying on your kitchen
counter top. Each member of your family has
been cleaning up different areas of your home,
but all the sponges look the same. You are
curious as to what was cleaned in your home,
but you can't tell by looking...they all look the
same....so what do you do?
You squeeze each sponge to see what comes out.
As you squeeze the first sponge, you see that cola
comes out, and so you decide that someone cleaned
the kitchen with that one.
Upon squeezing the second sponge, you find tub and
tile cleaner - that one was used to clean the bathroom.
Next, in the third sponge, you find motor oil-- hubby
was cleaning the garage!
In the fourth sponge, baby powder puffs out when it is
squeezed -- yep,the baby's nursery was done with that one!
And finally, in the last one, is floor wax -- that was the one
you used on the hall floor!
As you lay the last one down, you look again at their
similarity - and they all look the same until they're
squeezed.
Christians are the same way. As life squeezes us,
different things come out- anger from one, a need
for revenge from another, tears from one, remorse
from yet another - also greed, untruth, lust - and
finally, from one saint, pours forth the love of Christ.
Just like the sponge, we can only squeeze out what
is put in - stay in the Word daily, and be in
continuous prayer, so that when life puts the squeeze
on you (and it WILL), Jesus, and Jesus ALONE
will shine forth from you!
Have a blessed, squeaky clean day!
