Firstly, there is plenty that still needs to be done around the house, but making a reasonable plan of attack is extremely necessary. I'm glad the Lord doesn't ask us to take care of all our problems at once. We would get extremely worn out, and we wouldn't truly be able to address everything. Instead He says, "Today, work on your temper."
Vacuuming : It's a necessity; especially in our house. We average 35 -50 people through our house a week right now. It's methodical; you can't really mess this up, push the whirring machine in lines, move obstructions out of the path, and make sure not to leave any stragglers. It's loud; everyone in the general vicinity knows you're cleaning, from the slee(awake now)ping child to the vigilant neighbors, but none the less, it must be done and they must know that it is happening.
Matching Socks : It's orderly; like the feeling you get when you clean your room... suddenly your life feels like it's at least a little more organized. It's simple; more so than that matching card game we played when we were kids. Unless your sock collection is ginormous or you have lots of lone soldiers, then there may be more to it. It's quiet; at least it calms me down.
Whether God is working on your outward behavior, or your inward heart, he has enough grace for us, that we, through faith, may be saved.
