House Cleaning

Last night, in my dream, I was in a familiar neighborhood. As I walked, I came upon a house where a crew of people were busily cleaning. This crew was led by Lewis Benson. I readily joined in the effort of cleaning windows, cleaning eve troughs, sweeping the roof, and cleaning the inside. It was as thorough a cleaning job as I have ever witnessed! Nothing was left untouched.

I have had the clear understanding that I must share what I have seen. Even though I can't say precisely what the vision means, I have the sense that this is the Lord's call. Have we need of cleaning? What debris has been collecting and rotting in un-used corners? Are we willingly open to the Lord's broom and dust-cloth? It is not enough to tot up a "I-have-done-this" list. To whom have we been listening? Whom are we following? What condition, what attitude have we been nursing? These are the questions that have sat with me throughout the day.
