"Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?"
Proverbs 20:9
This is interesting... I think of keeping my language clean, or my clothes clean, or even my mind clean... but my heart I don't think about in that way (at least until now). Often, and in error, I think that emotion and feelings are things that happen to us, not things that we can choose and control. But, this scripture is right here before me, and it helps me to remember that I can choose what I feel, and I can choose to love rather than to hate, and I can work on making my heart clean. I invite you to do the same. :)
