Almost all Professions,jobs&even hobbies come with unique apparels or clothes to adorn. Lawyers,Waiters just to mention but a few.
One sport or hobby with a fascinating attire to put on is Athletics. Isn't it interesting how its costume is tight-fitting &revealing yet doesn't seem to be appealing to the eye causing that stir as it would normally have.(The focus is somewhere unless you...😉😆)
There are always clothes for whatever spectrum of life &uniquely they become 'clothes' that identifies us.
We also have Clothes as Christians. What you are thinking?... Ooh yea, of course,primarily *we are to look *decent*,clean,
and then with appropriate outfits & additionally *Nice*.☺
However, the focus is another kind of clothe that the Bible tells us to wear.
_Colossians 3:12-15 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, *clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone.*... Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on *love*, which binds them all together in perfect unity._
The above 'clothes' are not your mere ' physical clothing.They are abstract- can't be seen or touched yet its underneath strength is in the spiritual manifesting in the physical through training and upbringing.
So, are you:
*Compassionate:The Christian should always have that heart that cries,seeks,yearns for the interest of others especially for perishing souls. Are you?
*Kindness- It should be us...DO NOT grow weary of it especially in this increasingly cruel world...Remember Just one act of Kindness can change someone's view of life(The Good Samaritan in M
the bible)
*Humility:Have you seen that picture that shows how plantain develops from when it is fresh till when it is virtually of no use. That is how humans are. Please, Be Humble!... Visit the bible, it has a lot of words on this. Please Be Humble!
As we continue tomorrow, these are clothes that God wants us to perpetually wear in our daily lives so that it will shine for all to see the Christ we profess.
*SO I SAY:*
*THESE ARE OUR CLOTHES... CHRISTIANS...ALWAYS WEAR THEM!☺*
