Mice-nests and New Years Eve

The last day of the year 2012. The last page in my diary as well. Time to start on a new fresh book and a new fresh year.
Another metaphor: Ingvar and Phil are working hard on finding and cleaning out mouse nests in the car. For 2 days they taken a part half(exaggerated) of the car to find and clean out the mess these little terrors have made. Half decomposed mice have the most dreadful smell. 

I read from Luke 6:45 ‘’ A good man out of the good treasure(storeroom) of his heart, brings forth good, and an evil man out of the  treasure(storeroom) of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth(or facebook or twitter or, or...) speaks .’’
This doesn’t make up a complete picture though, but I believe we sometimes keep things in the storeroom of our heart, little things which we haven’t allowed the grace of God to touch. Little irritations, anger, disappointments, broken dreams, grudges etc, etc. 

To spend a little time asking God to reveal our little smelly mice-nests, clean them out, carry the mess to the cross. Then allow the storerooms to be filled with Gods grace and fresh wind of heaven instead (the wind is blowing through the car at the moment). That will help us get a good start on a new year 2013.
