Read Psalms 119:9  Have you ever been outside playing on a hot summer day?  May be you were playing baseball and got all hot and dirty.  When you came inside, your mother said, "Take off those filthy clothes and get right into the bath tub."  Didn't it feel so good to get nice and clean?  Didn't it feel good to wash off all of that dirt and then to see that dirty water going down the drain?  Cleaning off dirt takes water, but cleaning a dirty heart takes more than water.  Our verse says that we clean our ways by washing with God's Word.  What is another word for God's Word?  When we read the Bible, God shows us what sins are.  God shows us that we are wrong.  But just like a good bath, God's Word shows us how to clean up our life.  We can be a better person by reading to God's Word and obeying what the Bible says to do.  Ask God to show you where you are dirty on the inside and ask Him to help you to be better tomorrow.  Get clean by reading God's Word, the Bible!
