Topic: Creating a Clean Heart
Catholic Daily Devotional Today 29 January 2022 Message
Occasionally when, for the umpteenth time, I am washing dishes or cleaning off the unattended stacks of paper collecting dust on my desk, I think of how I continually repeat these efforts. Yet I go on doing these tasks because they need taking care of and I feel a lot better about the changed appearance. That’s also how I view creating “a clean heart.”
I seemingly get rid of a bad habit and then it pops up again, or a new one appears on the scene that I’d not noticed before. No doubt this will go on for the rest of my life, but I do not let it daunt me. I remember how great my desk looks when I make the effort to take care of the mess and how happy I am when the sink is emptied. So I go on giving myself to the grace that assists me in cleaning off my heart so I can more truly reflect the Holy One’s love.
