“Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting!” Psalm 139:23-24 ESV
Overtime, toxins can seep into our bodies from sources such as products used our skin or air pollutants. As a result, our bodies cease to function properly. At that point, we may consider to consume a cleansing beverage or some may prefer to place detox pads on their feet in order to remove the toxins from the body. Like our bodies, from time to time, so does our minds need to undergo a cleansing.
Sometimes, we hold things in our heart unknowingly that generate foul and unsavory thoughts. It takes God to open our heart to things we have unconsciously buried for a variety of reasons depending on the person. The cleansing of our thoughts begin with asking God to examine our heart. Even though God is all-knowing, the invitation to have God scrutinize the source of our intentions and thoughts, we volunteer to be open to God’s findings. As we respond to God’s correction, the cleansing of our thoughts are realized.
“Every so often, the cleansing of our thoughts becomes necessary”_ASA
