Clothing Ourselves as Christians

Blue, purple, and grey (and a little brown.)

Some people’s wardrobes are reminiscent of summer shades or a fall feel. Mine most resembles a bruise.

Then I got hung up on Colossians 3:12.

“There, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds all together in perfect unity.”

What does it mean to clothe ourselves spiritually?
