What Are You Wearing?
Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
Proverbs 31:25
Fashion is a major factor in our daily decision of what to wear. While we may not be obsessed with fashion, few of us desire to be viewed as "Out of Fashion". We all have a tendency to want to "fit in" with our peers when it comes to fashion.
King Lemuel describes fashion in quite a different way in the verse above. His description is not of something that you change daily but rather how your peers view you. It has nothing to do with the price, material or colors but it has everything to do with the designer. For only God can design the appropriate "clothing" for us to be seen as one of His own. While John the Baptist was clothed in camel hair and skins (Mark 1:6), he was praised highly by Jesus (Mathew 11:11) for what he wore.
What are we wearing today? Are we showing our peers the design by the Spirit? Galatians 5:22-24 gives us the shopping list we should use when deciding what to wear. Are your garments tattered? Worn? Not matching your proclamations? If so, seek the Master who will give you the freshest, cleanest garments to show off to your peers!
