What’s On Your T-shirt? May 26, 2022

“Remember your ultimate purpose, and when you set yourself to your day’s work or approach any activity in the world, let “Holiness to the Lord” be written upon your hearts in all that you do.” —Richard Baxter

Maybe you plan ahead about the clothes you’ll wear when you get up in the morning. You know what you have to do for the day and so you pick something to wear that is appropriate. Other times, you probably just get up and throw on the first pair of jeans and t-shirt you find in the closet. It doesn’t matter so much because you’re just doing errands today and cleaning the house.

What you wear might not matter so much to others. You probably have a bunch of t-shirts that display your favorite seasonal elements or your favorite brand logo. What you wear on the inside, though, makes a big difference to how your day will go. Remembering whose you are and intentionally designing your day to include the part of you that is “Holy to the Lord” can make a big difference. It might clothe you in wisdom and strength and the willingness to forgive. It might just be the most beautiful part of your wardrobe.

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” —Matthew 5:8 NKJV

Let us pray: Lord, help us to wear our joy in You wherever we may be today. Father God, hear our prayers of intentions from today, from our prayer wall and for any unmentioned prayers in our hearts.. In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.
