I come to you this morning to say two Words: Spiritual Detox
I have to confess to you all that theses past few weeks my Spirit has been cluttered due to so much going on, and I have to be honest it wasn't even my issues. Being a servant for God means being a servant for his people. As you all may recall in John 13:5 it starts to tell the story of how Jesus washed the disciples feet and he used the towel that he had wrapped around him to dry off their feet. Stop right there and think, their shoes was merely nothing, their feet got so dirty, even when washing with water alone Jesus still got some residue on that towel from their feet (OMG I feel a praise in this room)! After washing twelve men feet and wiping them all clean with the same white towel he had wrapped around him, You can't tell me that towel wasn't dirty. As he finished and stood up guess what; the towel dropped down and landed on his flesh. Jesus allowed the dirt from other men to touch him, even when he knew Judas was going to betray him he allowed his dirt to get on him; he still served him like everyone else! WOW! So as we serve Gods people our spirit picks up their dirt and we have to go to Jesus to serve us and cleanse our spirits! My spirit was so cluttered but I was still able to allow Jesus to use me and work through me, however, I felt as if I couldn't receive as I should have. So I spent most of my day in the Word yesterday and I tell you the Jesus put me through a spiritual Detox! By 8:30 last night I was bouncing off the wall! I was revealed so many things and he spoke to me on so many levels. This morning it fells good to be personally severed by Jesus himself! I feel like I have just had my feet washed my My Father! I feel renewed, refreshed, and rejuvenated! If you are feeling cluttered, confused, unsure, or feel like its something holding you back. I advise you to take a day and go through a spiritual detox. I love you all.

Angela, I have been feeling the exact same way. I really spent some time with Christ this morning and my devotional was on the exact same thing! The washing of the feet which is the lowest of the lowest servant's jobs. The hanging on the cross, the washing of the feet...just proves that there is nothing that Christ will not do to cleanse us of our sins in order to enjoy fellowship with us. I don't know why He loves me so much but I know why I should love and spend time with him more. Why is something that wonderful as spending quality time with God and getting bathed in His Love, so easy to forget?
