Kitchen Prayers

I Notice that every time I have a Mountain of dishes my heart sinks....I roll my eye's at them or wish I could just snap my fingers like in "Mary Poppins" and they will magically wash, dry and put themselves away!!! But in that exact instant I start to feel the pressing in my spirit to take off my shoes and Surrender to that still small voice that is so inviting...and then with a deep breath, I close my eyes and start to Thank my Lord for the dishes in my sink, and then I start to thank him for the Hot water, & the money to pay for that Hot water, and then I open my eyes to a smaller pile of dishes and then I reflect on whoever the Lord puts on my heart at that very moment...The sound of the running water is soothing to my soul, I now look forward to washing Dishes just so I could spend some time with the Lord without interruptions...Chances are if you are my friend I have prayed for you while doing dishes:) We are all like dirty piled dishes sometimes that stink up a Kitchen! But if we allow God to Have His way with us and cleanse us from our own filth, we will SHINE in Newness, because we have been Changed:)
