How are you dressed today? Do you wear the current fashion? Since God calls you his Beloved and set apart ones, wear clothes of love, that seeks to do good to others, with accessories of a heart of mercy, compassion, kindness, humility–not impressed with your own importance and willing to honor others, gentle, tender and patient. Forgive and release others from any grudge or offense, quickly, because the Lord has forgiven you. Let the shalom of Jesus envelop you with his fragrance of wholeness, completeness, contentment, peace and friendship, in all your interactions with others. Don't ever forget that you always wear love, it transforms your heart and allows you to live in harmony with others.
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. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It's your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it. (Colossians 3:12-17 MSG)
