-How are you dressing spiritually?
-Seek those things which are above
-Just as Christ has forgiven you you should also forgive others.
-Equip yourself for life’s battles. Although battles don’t always mean that you will be in a physical altercation but more so a spiritual battle.

-Let God clean you up so that you can experience real joy and peace!
SCRIPTURE: Galatians 3
-What does it mean to “put on” Christ to you?
-Even when you are not being treated the way you want it is still your charge to treat others right.
SCRIPTURE: 1 Thessalonians 5
-The type of clothes you wear can also demonstrate whether or not you are putting on Christ in your life. For instance wearing inappropriate clothing can be a indicator that you are not putting on Christ.
-Make sure you are not doing anything that would distract people from God. Be mindful of the things that you represent.
