YOU NEED A CAR WASH!!

"If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come". 2 Corinthians 5:17. My friend, I am so thankful to the Lord that God used me to lead you to Christ your Savior. It's an incredible feeling of being saved. Realizing that all your sins have been forgiven by Jesus, and you are on the way to heaven. It's kind of "new car smell" feeling, you know what I mean!! There is something about that smell, right? You and I love it!! It's so clean and fresh and nothing like it!! Hahh..You even don't want to remove the plastic coverings on the seats!! But, but, it doesn't last long. Tada! Before long the filth from outside gets in.. you know the crumbs, dirt, dust, spilled soda, french fries, Ketchup, napkins, dirt etc..Even kids will write on the window "wash me". Soon the new car smell is gone- it doesn't smell like it used to be.. right? Hey, many Christians let their NEW LIFE with Christ get dirty- with sin. As times goes by we all mess up and we sin again. Humm, a loss of temper, an idle word, a lie, a lustful thought, (well- you fill up the blank) we don't quite feel like we did when we first got saved- like that "New Car Smell". David was describing this problem in Psalm 51. "Create in me a clean heart..wash me with hyssop, and I will be clean, wash me and I will be white than snow". I have a suggestion for you Bro; Some choose to let that filth build up and before long there is no new looking, no good smell, and feel dirty all over. The right thing to do is acknowledge your mistake to God. No matter what you have done, God can forgive you. You will need a good car wash, a "detailing" by GOD!! Will you do that? Will you?
