Living makes us dirty on the outside, so we wash ourselves every day.
Living makes us dirty on the inside too, so we pray every day, “Wash away all my inquiry and cleanse me from my sin. Wash me and I will be whiter than snow (Psalm 51:2,7).

Oh what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.*
In everything make your requests known to God in prayer and petition with thanksgiving. Then the peace of God . . . will guard your hearts (Philippians 4:6,7 NEB).
