Washed Clean

I walked outside this morning And saw all of spring in bloom.  The rain last night and washed everything clean.  There was a clean fresh smell in the air that's indescribable.  The air temperature was perfect, the Sun was beginning to rise.  If there were ever one of those almost picture perfect heavenly spring mornings it was this morning. 

I was once nasty, filthy and dirty covered by the junk of this world and sin; but then I was washed clean.  Perfect because of me, not hardly.  I was made perfect in the sight of God because of Jesus Christ.

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 AMP
Do you not know that the unrighteous and the wrongdoers will not inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived (misled): neither the impure and immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who participate in homosexuality, Nor cheats (swindlers and thieves), nor greedy graspers, nor drunkards, nor foulmouthed revilers and slanderers, nor extortioners and robbers will inherit or have any share in the kingdom of God. And such some of you were [once]. But you were washed clean (purified by a complete atonement for sin and made free from the guilt of sin), and you were consecrated (set apart, hallowed), and you were justified [pronounced righteous, by trusting] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God.
