Wear this Kez

Been jittery. Worry. Overthinking. Price to pay as a leader, I guess? Feeling misplaced. Mismatched. Longing for a new adventure, less attachment, less frictions, less holding back, less quality?


And, I just got back for a provincial govt meeting. I feel kinda rubbish because of all the things I have said in the forum. I don't know why I regret a lot of things I said lately. Errrrrrm, is this some sort of unnecessary overthinking?


Well...


But these verses spoke really spoke to me. I am thankful for each morning devotion I had (in the middle of morning chaos, as always).


Pardon my randomness, but this is therapeutic as always ;)

So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.

Let the peace of Christ keep you in tune with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness. Let the Word of Christ—the Message—have the run of the house. Give it plenty of room in your lives. Instruct and direct one another using good common sense. And sing, sing your hearts out to God!

Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.


(Colossians 3:12-17 MSG)
