Jet wash

I recently purchased a Jet wash and I must say I am quite impressed with the results, the first time I used it I promised myself that in future I would wear wellington boots and tuck in my trousers, as I got absolutely drenched, I had washed the small piece of decking I have and the backyard. I donned my wellingtons again today to jet wash the walls of the bungalow and I must admit that yet again I am more than happy with the results. 

Whilst I was doing this a little robin came and kept hopping up to the wall and taking something off I think I must have disturbed some little grubs, I'm only sorry I didn't have my camera although I did catch him later behind the shed, still grub hunting.

There was something though that the jet wash didn't manage to get off and that was the marks from an ivy plant that had grown up the wall. The ivy had been removed before I moved in.

I was reminded as I was doing this of what Jesus can do in our lives and how He can make us clean, He bore our sins at Calvary. Every person on the planet has sinned no one is exempt and as God is a holy and just God we will all be judged by Him one day. That is not a prospect to look forward too, but God in His grace and mercy put in place a plan of redemption whereby all who repent of their sin will be forgiven, and unlike this wall there is nothing left, no guilt, no shame, no scars, it is all gone. Jesus, The Son of God took the punishment for our sin that we may be saved from His judgement. And I can testify to this absolutely free, amazing grace, you can't purchase it, you can't earn it, work for it or any such thing, it is free all you have to do is say yes to this free gift, repent and ask God to forgive you, and turn from your old life to a new one in Christ.. I can assure you, you will be clean and new.

Are you feeling dirty, or shamed of the way you live, are you feeling guilty for the sin that is in your life? You don't have to stay that way, trust in Jesus and He will make you clean and new. God, bless you I pray that if you are searching this will be of help and encouragement to you. Here are a few words from God's holy word, the Bible. 

Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Acts 3:19 Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

Ephesians 1:7

In Him we have redemption through His blood,

the forgiveness of sins,

according to the riches of His grace
