And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. 13 Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy. 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.(Romans 13:11-14)
Are We Properly Dressed?
Paul instructs to do this....do what? Put on LOVE (Romans 13:10). In a world of hate, corruption, deceit~, and false hopes, we are told to out on LOVE!
Love God. . . Love others. Simple instructions but oh so hard to live out!
It is hard to love when hurt. It is hard to love when misunderstood. It is hard to love when not appreciated. It is hard to love when hated! Yet we do as Christ did and still does. . . We LOVE!
Put on LOVE. . . in the form of prayer, service, sacrifice and forgiveness. (Luke 23:34) Now get dressed and go LOVE on someone!
