Reflect
The human experience is littered with messiness. In our homes and around our neighborhoods we encounter conflict, clutter, commotion, disturbance, confusion. Disorder and chaos are felt in our hearts and minds. The chances for transformation are everywhere. This reality of disorder can cause stress. Yet there’s a beauty in the mess: God meets us in the chaos.
Pray
God of chaos and order, there are messes all around me.
My heart and mind don’t always feel peaceful either.
Yet I trust that you are part of this turmoil,
creating anew in the chaos.
Help me to see the beauty of messiness
and be open to how you are inviting me to change.
Amen.
Act
Before you tidy or clean part of your space today, notice beauty in the mess. Consider how God’s designs are perfect and beautiful no matter if things seem messy or chaotic. Work with God when you create order in the chaos.
