Wondering what to wear today? God has something special picked out for you today. Nope, you will not find it hanging in your closet beside your favorite pair of jeans. But it is just as essential as your go to black dress. For a glimpse of God’s favorite attire on you:
Colossians 3:12: So chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. (The Message)

Blessings Wanda… How intriguing!
Love how you stripped down to the basics and picked out the BEST wardrobe in God's Word! Truly a divine clothing… but I'm not too sure how often I pick these out of my closet and put them on! Oh yes, I may prefer them as my favorite attire but how often do others see and admire these bare essentials in my persona:
Compassion (most likely,but my how the enemy likes to use this one)
Kindness (not visible to those who had to live with me daily)
Humility (more now than in the past, but even thinking so makes me a bit prideful)
Quiet strength (only of the Lord when HE is able when I am weary or weak)
Discipline (a constant necessity to keep my life in order but also a struggle)…
Guess I need to hang this verse on my closet door daily! Thanks for sharing and I pray that God helps me get dressed more often. I'm to use to wearing the bare necessities.
Always inspirational Messages here.
Love,peace and JOY,
Peggy

Amen! when we cover ourselves with the basics which God requires, life becomes something to be shared instead of a burden we carry.

GIRL, if we would think these over, truly PUT THEM ON, we'd always feel fully clothed and ready for anything! I LOVE this!
What truth! I needed this!
peace,

Love the way you applied that verse! So true … and so much more important than whether I wear the blue or the brown top. 🙂

Loved that scripture, Wanda.
