Clothe Yourselves With...

"Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience." Colossians 3:12

 Today, clothe yourselves with ways to make your day and other people's days so much better. You can choose whether you are going to have a good day or a bad day, so let's choose to have a good day by clothing ourselves with these five things listed. Clothe yourselves with compassion. When someone tells you something, really listen. Don't just catch a word or two as you are walking past them, really take time to listen to what they are saying and show them that you care about them, show them compassion. Clothe yourselves with kindness. Just be kind! Be nice to people, say hello to strangers, help someone pick something up that they may have dropped. Just be kind.  Clothes yourselves with humility. Keep your focus on God. Know that He is the one in charge and hand it all over to Him, let go of trying to be in charge of your situation and let God take care of it. Let Him be on the throne. Clothe yourself with gentleness. Shed that hard outer shell today and show someone gentleness. Comfort them with a kind and caring heart and be kind rather than harsh. Lastly, clothe yourselves with patience. Waiting is one of the hardest things we all have to do. But, when waiting, you must have patience and trust God. He has perfect timing on everything. We just need to wait for Him. When you do these five things today, it will make your day, and other people's days, so much more positive.
