I have been thinking a lot about windshield wipers this week. It has been a VERY cold and rainy winter (sweatshirts every night and morning - it sucks) so I have seen a lot of my wipers over the las few months. They were very obnoxious. They would squeak if the window was even a little dry and there was always a stripe down the middle of the swipe. The back window had a rather wide line that was being missed. But I just ignored them and cringed everytime they made that awful sound. Then the back wiper up and fell off. I decided that it was definitely time to invest in a new one. At the store I decided to splurge and buy 3 new ones. I put them on and would you believe that the swipes, smears, lines and squeaks all disappeared?
It is amazing how clear my windshield is now.
It occurs to me that our spirits are like windshields. When our "wipers" are strong and well maintained, our vision is crystal clear. There are no swipes or smears and the squeak is completely forgotten.
So, how are your wipers?

Sometimes when there is mud on your windshield, you'll have to help your wipers by squirting water on the windshield too. We may need help, occasionally, being able to see clearly.
I can always count on you for a great pick me up. I need to work on my wipers! Love ya:) Mandee
Dang you're handy! I think I'd rather have rain than all this terrible wind that we are having. I thought my house was going to blow down the other night. Great analogy with the windshield wipers, you'll have to use that one in a talk!
