Fall is my favorite season...especially when the cold crispy air finally arrives. It's sweater weather time! I have always loved an oversized sweater with a cowl collar...something about being all bundled up that gives me a feeling of protection...shielded from the cold winds that come with this season. It's just a wonderful feeling. The only downside is my inability to wear some really fabulous jewels around my neck.
After reading this passage in Proverbs, I realized that there were more things to adorn myself with rather than a cowl collar and sparkling jewels. Loyalty and faithfulness are words that I believe have become words of the past. Think about it...when do we ever truly experience loyalty anymore...we can't find it in the brands we buy, folks are less likely to be loyal to their employer unlike years ago when you got a job and stuck with it for 30+ years...you get my point.
We can adorn ourselves with loyalty and faithfulness no matter what everyone else does in this world. You know the saying, "dressed for success"...when we adorn ourselves with loyalty and faithfulness, we will find favor in God's eyes. Showing my faithful heart to those around me and staying loyal to God and His will for my life....I have no doubt He will keep me dressed for success.
