“I want to speak to you every day. I want to share My heart with you. I want to go where you go – for you invite Me there. I want to have your ears at all times, and your heart, and your mind. One so aligned with Me will not miss any of My calling upon your life, upon your daily walk with Me.

“I want to speak with you of soap. Soap cleans. Soap freshens and purifies. This thing you call soap in your world – you know it well. You long for it, for the feeling of cleanliness is always a good one. How much do you long for the ‘soap’ of the Lord your God? My ‘soap’ is a refining fire. It burns and glorifies and polishes and shines. It turns your life into a way that you had never imagined. It opens your mind to My great imaginings.

“Will you allow Me to purify you?

“Such purification is an ongoing process within My People. I AM a patient God. I do not expect you to be further along in your process than what I have planned for you. Nor do I want you to lag behind My process. So give Me all of yourself and ask Me to purify you daily. Just say YES. An ongoing YES – one that remains on your tongue even before you know what I will ask of you. This is a YES of submersion. Of full compliance with My Will for your life. Such a YES will never disappoint you. Will never lead you astray. It will open doors for you, new paths full of Wonder that you could not have imagined. For the imaginings of your Creator and Boundless God are always far above your own.

“My People tend to think of the process of purification as a difficult one. A hard road. Many times it is only as hard as you make it. For your constant Yes smooths many a path. But a moment of fear that leads to a NO mars the process. A consistent marring takes some scrubbing to remove. Even in this, I AM your gentle God.

“I invite you to think of your process of purification as a journey of great Joy and Delight. A journey of great Discovery. Come, allow Me, the Lord your God, to purify you. I will lead you to Great Glory. I will never disappoint. I will be the JOY of your life in all that I do for you.

“Spoken by the Lord your God, who Loves you more than you could ever imagine. Amen.”
