YOUR NEW CLOTHES
Today's reading:  Zechariah 1-7

"...See, I have taken away your sins, and now I am giving you these fine new clothes."  Zechariah 3:4 NLT

New clothes.

Whether hand-me-down, clearance find or full retail off the rack, there's something fun about a new set of clothes.

They make you feel nicer.

Stand taller.

Walk with pride(the good kind) and self-esteem.

You take care of them, not wearing your Sunday best out to the barn or to mow the yard in.

And yet, as Christians, we are constantly changing out of our 'new duds', back into our old filthy rags.

Worry is old clothing.

Fear is old clothing.

Doubt is old clothing.

Old habits are old clothing.

You, child of God, have new clothes--wear them!
