Washing

"Man, how often do I need to pray and read God's words? They are so boring!" Have you ever said that to yourself? Well, how often do you wash your face and your body? I bet you do it every day, because we get dirty every day. Otherwise, your mom would not be happy with you.

So, just as we wash our face every day, because it gets dirty every day, we too need to wash our thoughts every day. As we live in this world, our thoughts may get dirty by the thoughts that are not pleasing to God. So, we need to wash our thoughts every day. That is why we need to spend time with God's words to make sure that our thoughts are filled with God's thoughts. And, we need to do this every day.

"...Be transformed by the washing of your thought..." (Romans 12:2, Paraphrase).
