Applesauce in the Kitchen

I have a confession to make. I thought I was a thorough housekeeper until recently when I was mopping my kitchen. I had looked a little closer at one of the baseboards and remembered an incident that happened one day when I was making a meatloaf. I always put applesauce in it because I think that makes it more moist.

But, unless you want to mop your floor, clean the front and tops of your cabinets, take a second shower and change your clothes, DO NOT try to salvage a cup of applesauce by turning it upside down, shaking it to get all the sauce down to the lid and opening it. Can we say fermented? Could have been worse; could have been syrup. I do think applesauce would make a good hair gel in case of a tight.

Case in point here.........when you make a mess like that you may continue to discover applesauce (or whatever) hidden in out of the way places.

Sin is like that. We may look clean on the outside but in the hidden places of our hearts, sin is hidden from view. And, the only way to get to those sinful places in our hearts is through the love and forgiveness of our Savior. He can clean up our lives leaving them spotless.

"For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 (TLB)
