Cleaning Up Our Lives

Many of us have the odd bit of stuff that gets into our computer and mess it up. We don’t really want them there. I realized this morning that my computer seemed to be a little slower than usual and I wondered? Could it be some part of the vast internet was trying to get on my computer? Then the three websites that I have going, were all down. What’s with that? And why would they try to hack a small player in the vastness of the internet where they are nothing but an inconvenience?

Thanks to our amazing son-in-law, and a cousin who installed Super Anti- junk program for times like these both issues are getting resolved. With the cleaning programs it was just a few clicks of the mouse and off it went, racing around within the laptop looking for demons that want to do nothing but cause me stress. Mind you, it took twenty five minutes to do its task. Before I had time to clear off my desk, it was done and it had found 1293 little varmints that need just one more click – gone, all of them.

Made me realize that we to have the same problem in our lives. We have demons in our lives and they infect our lives, our minds and our hearts. They take us from the tasks that God has given us and slow us down and even derail us. Jesus is that person who comes into our lives and hearts and He cleans up all the garbage, baggage, and sin that can, if left unchecked, shut us down and steal all the great things God wants for us.  And Jesus does it in an instant.

If life seems to be a burden and we are just puttering along, maybe it’s time to call on Jesus. He can come into our lives and make them new. We read about this cleaning up in 2 Corinthians 5:17”When anyone lives in Christ, the new creation has come. The old is gone! The new is here!”

Give it a try! You have nothing to lose but those odd bits of stuff that mess up your lives, gain an eternity.
