Spring Cleaning: How to Get Rid of Clutter

By Sue Shellenbarger WSJ

I have never been much of a housecleaner, but this winter the clutter in my house got to be too much for me.

After a couple of busy years, I had let my garage, in particular, get out of control. Wall-to-wall boxes and bags of stuff made simply opening the door a stressful experience. Parking my car in there was beyond imagining.

Many people are battling clutter, as I report in Wednesday’s Work & Familycolumn on spring-cleaning methods. Weekly hours spent on housework since 1976 have fallen 20% among married couples, according to a studyat the University of Michigan. And clutter around the house is a source of tension for four out of five of couples, says a recent survey  of 1,019 adults for Kijiji.com.

People hang onto stuff because it has sentimental meaning, or shields them from anxieties about not having enough, experts say. In my case, I become attached to the hopes and memories I associate with my stuff. Old, unused board games are more than board games in my mind; they represent my love of quiet family evenings together. To me, our art-supply cabinet crammed with old stickers, glitter and paper signifies how much I enjoyed equipping my children, when they were small, to plunge into arts-and-crafts projects on a whim.

Once you realize the stuff is just stuff – not memories and relationships – it becomes easier to discard or donate unneeded items. In “Unclutter Your Life in One Week,”  author Erin Rooney Doland recommends taking digital photos of sentimental items, then giving them away. If you inherit Grandmother’s china but don’t want to use it, she suggests keeping a teacup as a memento and donating the rest. And “if your dresser is filled with T-shirts from college, cut them up and make them into a quilt,” she writes. Other people automatically toss stuff if they haven’t used it for six months or a year. Still others imagine that they are moving; the thought of boxing, loading, unloading and unboxing hundreds of pounds of stuff is enough to turn them into avid de-junkers.

Organizing expert Julie Morgenstern suggests writing “treasure guidelines,” or criteria for keeping stuff, and taping them to the wall of your work area. Ask yourself, “If this were gone tomorrow, would I miss it?” she says. For example, you might not miss the books that have been standing on your shelves for years; but even though you only wear a black cocktail dress once every five years – you might still miss it, she says....

Readers, is clutter a problem at your house? Does it cause tension in your family or marriage? What techniques or de-junking criteria do you use to keep it from getting out of control? Do you find it hard to detach from certain items you really don’t need any more?

Commerce presents the Old Fashioned 4th of July celebration. The parade on the square is at 10 a.m. Thursday and fireworks begin at 9:45 p.m. over the lake. Vendors will be on the square Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Many Homes Do Not Have Enough Time to Clean Correctly: WSJ

The Wall Street Journal recently said: "We are eating faster, talking faster, driving faster. So it stands to

reason we want to clean faster too.Unwilling to engage in housecleaning marathons, consumers have a new strategy—frequent bursts of mess-busting touch-ups. Cleaning a kitchen counter or bathroom sink now often happens with a passing swipe. Plates get wiped with a sponge and a squirt of soap. Floors get washed one spill at a time."

The change is creating a nation in need of professional housecleaning. And Affordable Christian House Cleaning is here to help meet that need.

Funeral for Hero Hood County Deputy

Final call for Sgt. Lance McLean: Capacity crowd attends service in Hico

July 2, 2013

A capacity crowd estimated at about 3,500 people – including law enforcement officers, medical personnel, friends and

family – attended the memorial service this morning at Tiger Stadium in Hico to honor Sergeant Lance McLean, the Hood County Sheriff’s Office deputy who died Saturday at age 38 from a gunshot wound suffered in the Oak Trail Shores subdivision. Attendees appeared to be emotionally moved as Sheriff Roger Deeds gave the “Final Call Protocol” – calling out “One-twenty-nine, this is Hood County 100″ three times. Dispatcher Brandy Smith, wife of Lieutenant Steve Smith who was one of McLean’s best friends, answered Deeds’ call with, “One-twenty-nine is 10-42. We have it from here.’ ” The dispatch code 10-42 means “off tour of duty.” McLean was laid to rest in the Duffau Cemetery, about seven miles north of Hico. see Hood County News for more.

Let us pray for the Deputy's family--this is heart-breaking.

Pray for Deputy: He is ‘very critical’ after shooting

June 28, 2013

HCN: Sheriff Roger Deeds is not optimistic about the fate of Deputy Lance McLean who was shot in the back of the head Friday morning after answering a 911 disturbance call in Oak Trail Shores. “He’s very critical,” Deeds said Friday night. “He’s basically on life support.” McLean is hospitalized at John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth. The heavily armed shooting suspect, Ricky Don McCommas, 49, of Joshua, was killed in the Granbury City Hall parking lot after a pursuit and shootout with officers. Granbury police officer Chad Davis was wounded in the shootout, but his injuries are not life-threatening, authorities said. The deputy who arrived after the shooting at the OTS residence was able to get the description of the suspect and the vehicle as the suspect was fleeing the scene.

Let us pray the deputy and his loved-loves.

Thank God We Have Jesus: Most of All He Has Us

I affirm and practice the Christian religion by God’s amazing grace and because I studied the subject as I discovered substantial evidence for theism. I rationally found that God must exist and the contrary is not possible. Thus I aim to faithfully practice faith in Jesus because God saved me and calls me to follow Him; this includes a structured religious form. Countless intelligent believers have conveyed similar thoughts to me. Although the majority of the world, throughout the preponderance of history, has professed and embraced religion and theism, religion can often make some nonbelievers uncomfortable. Sartre claimed that he became an atheist because a man stared at him in public. He felt uncomfortable and dehumanized by becoming an object of the long stare of a stranger. He then reasoned: God is omnipresent, hence God must have His eyes perpetually on Sartre. But he did not like God gazing upon him. Many nonbelievers detest this fact; they are suppressing the truth in unrighteousness. Religion requires commitment and intelligent believers delight in this truth inasmuch as God lives.

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God (1 John 5:13).

I know that God certainly exists and He has brought me into the covenant and promises through the person and work of Jesus Christ; this is a result of revelation and God’s effectual grace that actualizes my salvation. So I seek and enjoy my religious obligations. The name “Jesus” means God is my Savior (or God saves/delivers) and thus Jesus Christ’s name is an ideal fit since Jesus is both God and Savior. We all sin, we all fail, all men fall short and we need a Savior who removes our sins and replaces our sinful record with His perfect righteous record.

The claim that “Jesus is the only way to salvation” is not just a slogan, or a dogma tightly held due to intolerance, but it is true (Jesus is the truth), sufficient (He propitiated the wrath of an infinite God), effectual, and necessary (all men are sinners and require a Savior); moreover the exclusivity of Christ is clearly revealed in Scripture (John 14:6).

Job announced that he “knows my Redeemer lives” (Job 19:25). Paul declares, “I know in whom I have believed” (2 Timothy 1:12). It is impossible for the Christian Worldview to be false. I am saved by grace alone, and I have truth and certainty. It is impossible for God not to exist. Thank God we have Jesus!

Since Christ Keeps His Loving Promises Follow Him

By Mike Robinson

And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory (1Timothy 3:16).

Since God keeps His promises, we should focus on Jesus. Christ is the Master in every realm known and unknown: the realms of nature, the church, the future, and the spiritual. Christ flung the stars across the cosmos; He is the Lord of the universe. Additionally, He is the ground of rationality, the Logos of all true philosophy, and the precision of mathematics. Jesus is the Captain of salvation for He overmastered sin, death, and the grave. He turned the darkness of death into the dazzling glory of the Resurrection. With Jesus no one needs religion to escape death’s grip; no one needs religion to be loved and accepted: Jesus is alive and He loves His own to the end.

Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him (1 John 3:1).

Jesus is all-wise, omnipotent, omniscient, and He is everywhere present; He is blessed and radiant in power and glory. He propitiates God’s judgment and wrath as He offers unconditional love to all His people. Jesus saves, redeems, protects, delivers and leads His people. Jesus, as God, accomplished the supreme purpose as the conqueror of darkness and wickedness. Jesus is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
Contemplate the glory of Christ. Rejoice in the wonder of His person. Delight in His friendship. Thank Him for His forgiveness and love Him for His loveliness. With Jesus you do not need manmade religion. So focus on Jesus, live upon Jesus, walk with Jesus, and follow hard after Jesus as you obey His word out of gratitude; moreover, love Him for all He is and all that He has done for you.

Expressing Love to God

Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind (Jesus).

Packer offers the following practical applications for expressing our love to God:

To worship God is to recognize his worth or worthiness; to look God-ward, and to acknowledge in all appropriate ways the value of what we see. The Bible calls this activity “glorifying God” or “giving glory to God,” and views it as the ultimate end, and from one point of view, the whole duty of man (Ps. 29:2; 96:6; 1 Cor. 10:31). Scripture views the glorifying of God as a six-fold activity: praising God for all that he is and all his achievements; thanking him for his gifts and his goodness to us; asking him to meet our own and others’ needs; offering him our gifts, our service, and ourselves; learning of him from his word, read and preached, and obeying his voice; telling others of his worth, both by public confession and testimony to what he has done for us. Thus we might say that the basic formulas of worship are these: “Lord, you are wonderful”; “Thank you, Lord”; “Please Lord”; “Take this, Lord”; “Yes, Lord.” …This then is worship in its largest sense: petition as well as praise, preaching as well as prayer, hearing as well as speaking, actions as well as words, obeying as well as offering, loving people as well as loving God. However, the primary acts of worship are those which focus on God directly—and we must not imagine that work for God in the world is a substitute for direct fellowship with him in praise and prayer and devotion (James Packer, Your Father Loves You).

Make Note of the Power of the Gospel

During the Great Awakening through the work of God’s Spirit many people came to Christ; furthermore, by the preaching of Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield America was transformed. One of the most curious fads that appeared during that period of revival was an unexpected interest in shorthand in the American colonies. Almost everywhere people had pens in their hands as they hurried off to a revival service. They took their feather pen, portable ink well, and paper to write notes as many attendees recorded the sermon in shorthand. This led to a viral surge of shorthand books being purchased. During this mighty revival people were talking about Jesus and running to and fro while hearing the Cross preached; these inexperienced scribes were endeavoring to record every word for later study and meditation.
The preaching of Jesus Christ crucified and risen with the justification that comes by God’s grace led to the greatest revival America has ever witnessed.

Justification

But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness (Romans 4:5).

You say hold on a minute; I know what justification means: declared righteous. Why is it so important? When I hear this type of questioning, I can understand the reason Martin Luther said: “I feel sometimes that you are so slow to receive it; that I could almost take the Bible and bang it about your heads.” These truths are essential, yet often we don’t really embrace them and it seems we need it pounded into our hearts. Thomas Watson rightly noted that justification is the “very hinge and pillar of Christianity.”
Van Til pointed out that “the idea of grace is wholly out of line with the idea of autonomous man.” Paul declared: “Let God be true and every man a liar.” We should believe God and not any man that attempts to controvert God’s Word. By God’s grace through faith in Jesus one is justified, forgiven, and accepted by God. That’s good news.

• And he believed in the LORD, and He accounted it to him for righteousness (Genesis 15:6).
• Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1).
• For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness” (Romans 4:3).
• But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness (Romans 4:5).
• For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of My people slightly, saying, “Peace, peace!” When there is no peace (Jeremiah 8:11).

We should delight in the good news of our justification and get stirred-up to teach others this stupendous truth: Christ came to save sinners. When we witness, we must hoist the person and work of Christ. After pressing the law on the heart of the wicked, share the gospel and justification with them. Pray that God changes their hearts, and that they cast themselves upon the person of Jesus Christ.

Obedience Motived by Gratitude

All Christians must understand that keeping God’s law doesn’t save their soul, but grace through faith in Christ alone saves them. And the Christian is to follow God’s law out of gratitude and love.

If you love Me, you will keep My commandments (John 14:15).

I … believe that I am, by Christ, freely and fully justified and acquitted from all my sins … yet, methinks, I find my heart more willing and desirous to do what the Lord commands … than ever it was before I did thus believe (Edward Fisher; notes by Thomas Boston: Marrow of Modern Divinity: Covenant of works & Grace: The Ten Commandments).

The Christian is motivated to obey God’s word out of gratitude and love. The believer is to follow God’s law because he loves God and his fellow man. God is good and loving. This truth infuses obedient love into the believer’s heart, by the power and person of the Holy Spirit, through faith. If you love Jesus, you are called to follow His moral law. If a church loves Jesus, it is going to instruct and admonish its members to follow God’s law.

How Often Should I clean my House?

House cleaning is an essential chore that can keep your home safe, winsome, livable, and sanitary. By having a regular schedule, you can ensure that your house is always presentable and avoid the last minute rush to

tidy up when loved-ones or company is coming over to visit. How often you need to clean your house will vary with each chore, but there are some simple guidelines that can help you create your own house cleaning schedule.

• Main areas: Once a week for the kitchen, living room, and bathrooms (sometimes 2x a week for bathrooms).
• Large scale and deep cleaning should be done 3-4 times a year.
• Daily pick up, dishes, and counter cleaning should be practiced daily or at the time of the mess.

Jesus Leads and Provides Purpose

The Shepherd Leads and Supplies Purpose

by Mike Robinson

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the

valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over (Psalms 23:1-5).

God seeks and values the gifts we bring Him—gifts of praise, thanksgiving, service, and material offerings. In all such giving at the altar we enter into the highest experiences of fellowship. But the gift is acceptable to God in the measure to which the one who offers it is in fellowship with Him in character and conduct; and the test of this is in our relationships with our fellow men. We are thus charged to postpone giving to God until right relationships are established with others. Could the neglect of this be the explanation of the barrenness of our worship? Matt 5:24 (G.C. Morgan).

Meaning, purpose, and happiness come when I:

A. Look to God’s word, follow Him and glorify Him alone

(2 Timothy 3:16-17; Luke 14:27).

B. Decide to focus on eternal things (Colossians 3:2).

C. Look for things in my life that need to be changed

(Psalms 119:11).

D. Ask others what my character flaws are in order to mature (Proverbs 15:22).

E. Be amazed about Jesus (Galatians 2:20)!

F. Trust Jesus—believe in Him for all things (John 14:1;

Ephesians 3:20).

G. Pray (1 Thessalonians 5:17).

H. Look to the Gospel (Romans 1:16; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

I. Remember happiness is not Hell (Matthew 25; Revelation 20-22).

Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in Heaven (Luke 10:20).

Law/Gospel: Distinct But Not Separate

The predominant functions of the moral law and God’s commandments:

I. Restrain Evil.

 

II. Reveal Sin/our Depravity.

 

III. Assist in our sanctification.

One must not confuse and commingle law and gospel: God’s commands distinct from God’s promises. The law is not just the Old Testament inasmuch as the Old Testament contains the gospel and the gospel is not just the New Testament for the New Testament contains law. The law accuses. The law commands and demands. It’s what God expects out of His creatures in our thoughts, words, and works. For it is not the ten recommendations, it is the Ten Commandments. It is rigorous. The law doesn’t say just do the best you can. God does not grade on a curve. The final requires perfection or one does not enter Heaven. It demands one hundred percent, every moment, in thought, word, and deed. The good news is Christ has expiated the transgressions against the law for His sheep by grace through faith. The greatest good news is that Christ has made satisfaction for the sins, the mistakes, and the commandment breaking of His people.

     The gospel has attained and acquired for all Christians, without any works or merit on our part, the forgiveness of sins and the imputed righteousness of Christ that avails before God and provides eternal life. The law is written on our hearts and the gospel comes from outside us from God’s grace (Galatians 3:10-12). Scripture reveals that the law is everything that demands perfect obedience to God and pronounces God’s curses on all transgressors (Romans 3:19). The law of God renders the whole world guilty before God’s holiness and reveals the knowledge of sin (Romans 3:20-23).

   How can one avoid Hell? Jesus taught that it is very simple, “Be perfect as your Heavenly Father is perfect” (Matthew 5:48). Do that every day, perfectly and live. Recall what Jesus said, “It is harder for a rich man to enter the kingdom of Heaven than a camel to go through an eye of a needle.” In that particular instance the disciples were very perplexed. They said, “Lord who then can be saved?” Jesus responded by revealing to them, “With man it is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Heaven is infinitely beyond the reach of sinful men. Men need God to do the impossible. And God has accomplished this through Christ and His vicarious death and resurrection. It is all solely by grace. Deny Christ and it is impossible for an imperfect man to be accepted into a perfect Heaven. One must have their imperfections and sins removed by the Cross of God’s Son.

   The gospel offers acceptance from God, peace with Him, and salvation freely given to the sinner by grace through faith (Romans 1:16-17, 10:15; Acts 20:24; Ephesians 1:13, 6:15). The law is distinct from the gospel but not separate; there is a unity within the diversity. Distinct but not separate.

The inward area is the first place of loss of true Christian life, of true spirituality, and the outward sinful act is the result (Francis Schaeffer).

Both the law and gospel are in the whole of Scripture. The two pertain to men and women and must be taught side by side with distinction within the oneness of Scripture. Christians are to uphold the law with zeal and with truth through the grace and the power of the Holy Spirit (Romans 7:7-14). Some contemporary Christians believe the law is not to be upheld. They argue that we do not need to do the commandments in today’s dispensation. These are antinomians. Anti means: against. The definition of noumos: Law. Hence an antinomian is against the law. If there is no moral law, there can be no hell and no punishment for lawbreakers. If the law is gone, you get rid of the absolute standards of right and wrong. You also get rid of hell, and you get rid of the need of the Savior too. If we are not lawbreakers we do not need to be saved.

The Life of a Christian

John 10:10-15 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. 5 Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.” 6 Jesus used this illustration, but they did not understand the things which He spoke to them. 7 Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. 12 But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them. 13 The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own. 15 As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.

To live a life of obedience before God’s face you must:

1. Admit that the flesh is weak (Matt 26:41).

2. Pray for power and wisdom to overcome temptation and sin.

3. Avoid instruments, places, people, and circles that tempt you and where you previously fell.

4. Keep your focus on the Shepherd Jesus and His victory. He died for you and He leads you.

(1 Corinthians 15:56; Hebrews 12:1-2).

The church of Jesus Christ has plenty of programs, plenty of buildings, books, and trinkets. But what we need most are trained, mounted troops of God. Soldiers trained for sudden, daily charges against the gapping breaches in the enemy’s line opened daily by the Word of God. The church has advanced through slow, pounding bombardments as it has opened hospitals, orphanages, outreaches and care centers. We must become loving troops: aggressive, compassionate, merciful, and unlimbering the great theological guns from the portholes of the churches. The great gospel weapons: The pounding of the truth of justification and lifting high the standard of the triune God must be our goal. Exalting the person of Christ our Prophet, Priest, and King should be our passion. He is the unstoppable weapon of the church: Jesus Christ.

     Christians must become impassioned disciples to run with Jesus. Our moral duty is to put off all the excuses, indifference, sloppiness, slothfulness, slouchiness, laziness, and sluggishness. One can’t be a Christian sluggard. A Christian can’t afford to be droopy, duff, or negligent, but diligent in obedience and worship. It is about honoring God as God.

If you are weak and weary:

•   Pray to God for power and grace.

•   Praise and glorify God Almighty.

•   Hence, if you are battle weary: Pray and praise.
