I love leggings. They are about the only things I wear, pants wise. They are comfortable, stretchy and gives you some tummy control. The one thing I do hate about wearing leggings though is finding long enough shirts for coverage. I never want to dress in a way that attracts attention, or makes me look, excuse my French, slutty. This morning I had a very hard time looking for something to wear. I stared at the clothes in my closet for hours it seemed like. I finally settled on a white tank top with a white sweater. I thought it was going to be long enough, but when I put it on, it barely does the job. So I text my sister and a friend to get their opinions. One says it's long enough, the other says borderline. Well that's no help! Haha. So I settled on eating some lunch, reading my devotional and starting back at square one, inside my closet. But here is what I read today.
Trust and thankfulness will get me safely through this day. Trust protects me from worrying and obsessing. Thankfulness keeps me from criticizing and complaining; those "sister sins" that so easily tangle me. Keep my eyes on Him. It is a free choice that I must make thousands of times daily. Focus on Him, entrusting my concerns into His care.
Colossian 2:6-7; Psalm 141:8; 1 Peter 5:7
I need to trust God and not worry and obsess about what I am wearing. I need to be thankful that I even have clothes to wear, so I can stop criticizing and complaining about my limited wardrobe. These sins do so easily tangle me. That's why I cannot go through one day being genuinely happy because I keep worrying, obsessing, criticizing and complaining. I need to be thankful for even the littlest things because to others, I have more than I need. I just need to entrust all of my concerns into His care, even the smallest of concerns.
