DIRTY

according to the oxford dictionary in front of me, the word DIRTY has many meaning of its own. it can mean
1. covered or marked with dirt, in other words...UNCLEAN
2. obscene
3. dishonest or dishonourable
4. rough and unpleasant weather

other words that could replace the word DIRTY are many too..some of them being...FILTHY, muddy, MESSY, NASTY, polluted, UNFAIR, corrupt, DISHONEST, etc.....

a common word that peeps use when something clean has dirt on it. a word that peeps use to scold a child for being messy. a word to describe a thief or an illegal work being done. a word that is negativity. a word that sometimes brings a person down. a word that sometimes may make a person learn a lesson from their mistake. a word that some peeps dislike hearing to be called. a word that a super duper clean person can't stand.

the word DIRTY can mean many things. it depends on the reader's perception and understanding of this word. whether the meaning has a good or bad outcome...it's all up the peeps giving and receiving this word.

most of the time, when something gets 'DIRTY' (not clean), it can be cleaned off by using soap, detergent, etc. sometimes, when the situation seems 'DIRTY' (messy), it can be cleared up with a few solutions here and there. when the weather gets 'DIRTY' (rough), it will soon go away and the weather will be calm again. but what bout when someone gets 'DIRTY'???

of course the answer is...... the blood of Jesus .....His blood washes away that 'DIRTINESS' in His amazing way. we just have to admit our mistake, repent on it, and wa la...the 'DIRTINESS' is gone. but is it completely gone??

and what does this DIRTY means in this concept?? SIN is the answer. all sorts of sin are DIRT. and it can only be washed away by the blood of Jesus. isn't that wonderful?? His blood makes us clean again. is it done once and for all though??

on a personal note, the word DIRTY has its own meaning to me. a meaning to let go, a meaning to learn a lesson, a meaning to forgive and be forgiven, a meaning so real to me. but will it ever go? will the lesson be learnt? will it forgive? will it be forgiven??
