What shall I wear today?

Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. ~ Colossians 3:12 ~

Let's see, what shall I wear today? Let me look through the closet...anger? No, I don't look good in anger. How about jealousy? No, Jealousy is not a good color for me. I could always wear a bad attitude but that went out of style a long time ago. Oh yes, how did I overlook it, the perfect outfit!...I'll put on mercy, everyone loves mercy, especially when it's tenderhearted, and I could wear it with kindness, humility, gentleness, and I can't forget the perfect accessory to go with the perfect outfit, patience! The Bible tells us to "clothe" ourselves with these things, Ephesians 6:11 tells us to "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil". Are you seeing a pattern here. The Bible uses words like "clothe yourselves" & "put on" to demonstrate the fact that we have to make the effort. God will do the work in us, He will enable us, but we have to be willing, able & ready. So each day make a choice of what you will wear that day, do not let circumstances decide for you, you decide, you choose. What shall you wear today?
