Extreme Clean OUT~~~

" I LOVE shoes"

 I remember a few weeks ago, I was running around cleaning like a mad woman. Yelling at my daughter and son too( like he was listening) " Come on y'all, we cannot go into 2013 with a dirty house, Grandma Netta will kill me( my Mom)". Not only had I worked that day BUT I had to work that night as well with NYE sits ( I run a Nanny/Sitter Service). Up until 10:45pn, I was getting MY house in "order". Quickly cleaned my bathroom( cleaned Li's the day before), changed my sheets and washed the last 2 loads of laundry. Cleaned the kitchen, loaded the dishwasher, vacuumed, wiped everything down and forgot about my closet. Sugar rumps, I HATE tackling that closet. BUT, to my own surprise I sat there, in the middle of the closet and really took the time to sort thru my shoes, clothes and EVERYTHING else.

As I sat there, I looked at each pair of shoes and had a memory or two. My shoes are the other children I'll never have "physically". I'm super anal when it comes to my shoes, they are in individual clear boxes and they are labeled. And the array of shoes I have is sickening. I have shoes some would call ugly, shoes that make me feel like Beyonce', I have custom shoes made JUST for my feet and a few pairs of sneakers that balance it all. My mind said to just close the door to the closet but MY Spirit said, "Ummmm, you can't clean 1/2 the house and leave the part that needs the most work".

Let's fast forward to today.....AM prayer....( dReam Center Corporate pRayer for the next 21 days, you're welcome to join us 6am, (218)339-0803 access code 4209)

Pastor William Murphy...." You can't put new wine in old skins"..Ahhh Haaaa..I couldn't go into the new year, expecting an abundance of "NEW Shoes" and still harboring old shoes that just didn't "fit".....( just a comparison)

 The same energy and passion I have to care for my shoes, I'm using that same energy to channel my life and way of living. I'm working on my heart because that's always the one place that needs to be cleansed. And not that I'm an evil person but I'M HUMAN.... We make mistakes, we think we've forgiven others, we think we're over situations but it can easily be sparked...

Everyday, is a reason to dig a little deeper and purge. Everyday, is a reason to throw out something, EVERYDAY is a reason to drink water because water is life and it's PURE...

I challenge each of you to drink water more and to refrain from eating things that are not healthy for you... Not because its a diet but because you're cleansing yourself for all the new you will intake this year...

That:
new JOB
new CAR
new HOUSE
new BUSINESS...

 It's coming!! So why not start the extreme Clean Out: Today???
