Have You Outgrown Your Clothes?
If you’re like me, you might have clothes in your closet, and behaviors in your life, that:
- Are uncomfortable (anybody else feeling the extra 5 pounds since ‘Rona?)
- Are unflattering
- Are holey (and not the good kind of holy)
We don’t have to dress out of this closet. These clothes are ugly to ourselves and to others: bad tempers, irritability, meanness, profanity, dirty talk, lying to one another (Colossians 3:8-10).
They no longer fit us. We have permission to bag them up and get them out of the house.
Wardrobe Makeover
Instead, we can receive a wardrobe makeover.
I’m writing today at Do Not Depart for our series on Colossians 3. #RENEWED
- Fiction and Nonfiction Books that Go Together
- In This Transition, Keep a Steady Focus on God
So true that we often hang on to things longer than necessary in hopes they will fit again. I find that if I place those clothes in a “donate” bag and then don’t miss them for awhile they are easier to finally get rid of.
