A good housekeeper sees to it that dust and dirt do not accumulate in nooks and corners and on shelves. Periodically, the house is gone over and given a thorough cleaning. Too often in our spiritual lives, we allow negative things to accumulate in corners of our minds. We tackle the obvious problems as they come along, but allow the small difficulties to pile up in the corners.
Foe instance, if we are faced with a problem of health of finance, we get to work on that immediately, but if, on the other hand, someone has injured us, instead of handling the incident spiritually at the time, we tuck it away and perhaps pack in a little resentment along with it. Such problems should be dealt with as they arise. If someone has injured you, forgive them now, and be done with it. Take care of the other difficulties in like manner.
Be a good housekeeper. Clean out every nook and corner - and God will make you worthy of greater accomplishments in the future.
And he said unto him, Well done, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities (Luke 19:17).
