“Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.”
—2 Corinthians 7:1
I’m a messy person by nature. I don’t like to live in messy environments, but I make a lot of messes. My approach to cleaning is the path of least resistance. If there’s clutter on my desk, I pitch it into a drawer. Out of sight, out of mind. I tell myself that I’ll get to it later. I allow messes to build up—in certain areas of the house, in my car—until I can’t take it any longer. Then I go into attack mode. I clean until everything is back in order. And I feel proud of myself. And then I start making my little messes again.
My wife is my polar opposite. She’s a very neat and tidy person. She is constantly cleaning. When she makes a meal, she starts cleaning the dishes before the meal is done. She is always straightening and organizing.
