What's Hiding In Your Closet

There are times when we clean up on a whim because unexpected guests are coming, or maybe we’ve procrastinated....and shoved some things in a closet. Inevitably we sometimes forget what we put in there. It’s possible we just keep pushing things further to the back so we don’t even remember what’s in there and keep adding so much that it would take a few days to find something. 

Our hearts are often treated the same way. We just keep adding things and shoving things into the closet of our hearts without working through them or processing them. Those closets become ineffective, we can’t fit things in there, we clearly could never open the door or allow anyone to look inside. 

Maybe it’s time to take inventory of our hearts/closets. Toss the things that are of no use; like hurts, fears, insecurities, that are taking up unnecessary space. 

Challenge:

Today, take a look into the closet of your heart. Lets find and put to use the things that we may have misplaced or lost and covered by the clutter of life. Hiding underneath the hurts and pains we can find our joy, hope and strength, open the door to the closet of your heart and find those good things.
