Tip of the Day 1/24/12

Today I am facing the mountain of vacation laundry we came home with, so my tip is for the laundry room. To keep your washer smelling fresh run a cup of white vinegar through the hot water/high volume cycle. This will clear out the mildew smell that grows because of the machine being closed up. Also, leave the lid of the washer up while drying your load and this will help dry it out.

Word for Today, Lips: Over the years I have developed the habit of asking the Lord to "set a guard over my lips" as I am heading into a situation where it is easy to get swept up in the conversation. I also ask Him to put the words on my lips that should be spoken. This is so needful for me and is a great practice as we "speak" to others including social media. Lord, speak through me please. May my words please You.
