Dirty Lawn Mower

Our lawn mower gets used every week in the summer months to mow our lawn.  Something we’ve been neglecting to do is clean it after each session.  We turned it sideways and the under carriage was caked in hard dry dirt.  I’m sure the person using it was carrying an extra load that made the job harder and heavier.

Hebrews 12:14-15 from The Message… Work at getting along with each other and with God…keep a sharp eye out for weeds of bitter discontent…

People upset us, we have a choice, do we hold onto it, let it grow, causing us to become heavy laden and bitter and contaminating others?  Or do we clean up afterwards, chat it through, all gone.
