Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

‎

If you've ever had someone stay with you, you probably spent some time cleaning the house, washed bedding and purchased food so your guest can feel welcomed and at home. I recently had company and I can tell you it's some work before hand and while they are here, keeping everything in proper order, but it's worth it when they find comfort during their stay. 

If you are a child of God, your body host the Spirit of God. His Spirit lives inside of you, going everywhere you go, experiencing everything you do and He absorbs every aspect of your life. Question, do you continually work hard to make sure what you do, places you go, and your thoughts all make for the perfect setting for our Holy God? Today's scripture reminds us that our bodies are not our own. Christ blood, His atonement for your sin, purchased your worthless soul and made it clean in the eyes of God. 

So, since you have a clean soul, why not keep it clean by living a Godly lifestyle. Don't clutter it with sinful pursuits and behaviors unbecoming of a child of God. A clean house takes work, personal sacrifice and a commitment to providing the best for the Holy Spirt. On the day when your soul meets God, you will hear Him say....Good job my good and faithful servant. Why not do some temple cleaning today so you can provide the Holy Spirit a suitable place to live. 

God bless.
