who are you wearing?

The annual parade of stars on the red carpet has come and gone. I didn't watch the Oscars last night. I hung out at a ball field and went out to eat with an old friend instead. I can say I didn't see one movie, but I love a pretty dress, just like any good woman should. Though I hear there was a barely mint princess dress fit for a 10 year old's birthday party, fishtail flops, and long trains that were being stepped on all night. The belabored question of, "Who are you wearing?" was asked an untold number of times.

This issue of what you are wearing is actually a very important one. So, what then shall we put on?

The night is far spent, the day is at hand:
let us therefore cast off the works of darkness,
and let us put on the armour of light.
Romans 13:12


For as many of you as have been baptized
into Christ have put on Christ.
Galatians 3:27


And that ye put on the new man,
which after God is created in
righteousness and true holiness.
Ephesians 4:24


Put on the whole armour of God,
that ye may be able to stand
against the wiles of the devil.
Ephesians 6:11


Put on therefore, as the elect of God,
holy and beloved, bowels of mercies,
kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness,
longsuffering; forbearing one another,
and forgiving one another,
if any man have a quarrel against any:
even as Christ forgave you,
so also do ye.
Colossians 3:12-13


And above all these things put on charity (love),
which is the bond of perfectness.
Colossians 3:14
