No clutter in the car." We shall see. :) Although I have to admit you've got me beat on the powdered orange.

I was always the one throwing out my sister's "treasures". haha!! (neat freak that I am - not that this is any more positive than being a messy, actually - both have their downsides!). But I did thoroughly enjoy reading this from your standpoint. What a great thought here. I am currently on bedrest and my house is not exactly in my desired tip-top shape....so while my hands itch 24/7 to attack the house, I'll just remember about finding hidden treasures. I already can't wait for my "treasure hunt!"

As a recovering (ok... not doing well on the recovery process... lol) neat-freak, it used to stress me out having to see the chaos in her vehicle, but after 16+ years of marriage I've come to understand she sees my orderly areas as slightly disconcerting as well. Thankfully, disheveled or pristine, God loves us all the same!<br /><br />Have a Blessed Day!Phather Phil Malmstromhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13381497588682411499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8288512513140862525.post-89015819876818646442011-08-29T18:36:43.396-04:002011-08-29T18:36:43.396-04:00My husband takes care of the car so any mess is hi...My husband takes care of the car so any mess is his mess. ha!

I'm sure it's been there, but my car does smell like McDonalds no matter what... and that is gross! Fortunately for me, I've lost my sense of smell for sinus issues, so it's not bothering me at all :) I loved this encouragement too... <br /><br />"Yes, the messes of life can be down right disturbing sometimes, but cleanup doesn’t have to be. Dig through your mess and turn it all around to make it one beautiful testimony for God’s glory!" <br /><br />So true... He is SO good at straitening us up and bringing glory to His name. I love that about our God.
