A Wash Machine Testimony

When You plant Seeds of Laundry Soap, Your Harvest may be a Wash Machine.

that is Exactly what happen to me.  

My Wash Machine had been on the fritz.  with each load it washed it sounded sicker and sicker. More noises, then leaks.  We had one of those Fancy Wash Machines...( you may have even read about it when I posted it on my blog a few years back.)

Well, About 3 weeks ago the machine started beeping, and the digital code on the machine blinked "F"

Oh, I knew what "F" meant.  I looked in the owners manual, and I kid you not it has "F" written out like this "F###" with the hash tags  hmm, yup I knew what "F" meant.

In the past couple of months before my wash machine went out I had given away close to 30 bottles of laundry soap.  My husband asked "what do you think your harvest will be? More laundry Soap? "

I said, "No, I am hoping for a wash machine." 

Now, I was not given out laundry soap so I could get one, it was just on my heart to give all of this laundry soap.

So In passing when I was telling my friend that my wash machine bit the dust someone over heard. She Said they had 2 wash machines and wanted to bless me with one of them!!! that was almost 3 weeks ago.

I have been wanting to post this since then, Now I know the reason why I hadn't.  

The story was not yet complete.

At 3 a.m. This morning I had a dream of a basket full of dirty clothes.  I then woke up and started to write this out with pencil and paper.

 We are the dirty clothes

God is the Wash Machine

Jesus is the ultimate Stain remover

The Holy Spirit is the Fabric Softener that dwells on the entire piece of clothing after being washed with the Stain remover.

We don't have be washed in a Soak cycle, the soak cycle represents Works and religion. (Ephesians 2:8-9)  Works and religion says you have  to wear your hair a certain length, say repetitive prayers, can't celebrate holidays, stay in condemnation(Romans 8:1)  and do so many works to make yourself presentable before God.  By staying in the soak cycle you are saying that Jesus..the ULTIMATE stain lifter did not do enough to pay for our dirty clothes to be clean. (1 John 1:9)

There is NO "Dry clean only" with God.  The only way to come to the father is Through Jesus. (John 14:6)

God is not a "One Size fits most" God is a "One size fits ALL"  (act 10:34)

Meaning no matter how dirty your clothes are he cleans it fully.  No stain is to big for the ultimate stain remover.  If He cleaned my clothes and made them spotless, He will do the exact same thing for you.

  Now we can be stainless before God with our Clean clothes (Ephesians 1:4)

Since I want to know God's Charachter and will and be more like Jesus, I will starch and iron myself with God's word anytime my clothing gets wrinkled.  (Romans 12:2)

And God just doesn't want us to put ourselves on a hanger and stay in the closet to only be worn on Sunday or special occasions.  God wants us to wear our clean clothes ALL THE TIME for all to see. (Matthew 5:16) Our clean clothes are not our Cross necklaces or fish symbols on the car, it is how we treat each others even when they are throwing dirt at our clean clothes. (Matthew 5:42-48)
Have a most wonderful day today my friends

Until Next time,

Stalker or Excited Mom? You Decide

these pictures were taken the week of 4th of July

this is the first time the marching band had gotten together for practice

Each instrument separated into their own little groups...I was excited for Gabby, since when she had initially tried out she didn't make it.  then on the last day of school they let her know that they still needed one more flute player.

So here is the first pic I snapped...gabby doesn't see me at first..but a couple of the other kids do...

 

 they then said something to Gabby like who is that lady talking pictures of us, and they told her  hope she is not a stalker.  the look of disgust comes across Gabby's face.  I'm thinking at first she didn't realize it was me? or was she just disgusted that it was me?

then full fledged embarrassment, that the lady snapping pics is her mom

 she is letting it soak in

when they came to for a break she said people were saying some weird lady is stalking us..

I said, "well Gabby did you tell them I was your Mom? "

She said "NO"

During the parade on the 4th We yelled out, We are your #1 Fan..the only thing missing was the big foam finger.....

There is a Chill In the Air.....
