2. If You Cannot Keep a Little House Clean . . .

A friend of mine once told me that his wife wanted to move to a larger house. She had a problem keeping their smaller house clean but promised him if they bought a larger house she would keep it spotless.

He lovingly told her, “Honey, if you can’t keep a little house clean, how do you expect to keep a big house clean?”

Our earthly duties are the “little house” to prepare us for eternity (Luke 16:10).
