Cleanse Me

A great way to start a new year, a new month, a new day is to ask the Lord to search you and know you and cleanse you from all that isn't pleasing to him.  How do you know what's pleasing to him?  His word, the Bible, outlines what pleases him!  Warning:  What you read in the Bible may offend you, press on anyway!  The Bible is not for us to be pleased or petted in our flesh, it is meant to offend so that we can rightly align ourselves with God.  I love what this song expounds on.  It expounds on the cries throughout the Bible that ask God sincerely to search and know.  Daily we need the cleansing of God and so daily this should be our cry.

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment.
