Soap

      A minister was asked to dinner by one of his parishioners who he knew as being an unkempt housekeeper. When he sat down at the table, he noticed that the dishes were the dirtiest that he had ever seen in his life. "Were these dishes ever washed?" he asked his hostess, running his fingers over the grit and grime. She replied, "They're as clean as soap and water could get them". He felt a bit apprehensive, but blessed the food anyway and started eating. It was really delicious and he said so, despite the dirty dishes. When dinner was over, the hostess took the dishes outside and yelled, "Here Soap! Here Water!

     From dish soap in the kitchen to laundry soap in the laundry room, from liquid at the bathroom sinks to to bar soap in the shower and tub, soap gets used at our house most of the time. Are you glad we don't have to rely on dogs to keep things clean?

      Dear Lord, Thank you
  • For all the soaps we use to keep things clean
