So today I was talking to God and He wanted told me to give away all the my t-shirts as well and live off of Robert's clothes for now until He provides me with more. As well as give away all of my shoes except the pair I was wearing.
SO...I officially was down to one pair of pants, two bras, underwear, and one pair of worn out flip flops.
Then Lila came over with clothes she had cleaned out of her closet. So I have three pairs of pants that magically fit me perfectly...ok, so it's not magic- it's God!
It's a start to my new wardrobe that God is going to provide. I now have 4 pants, 8 shirts, 4 hoodies, 2 skirts, 1 dress, 2 cardigans, and 2 scarves. That is currently all the clothes to my name. And they are all from God! Blessings! :/
It's ok though. I really am getting used to it because God explained the purpose for it. It's an outward expression of my inward change. I really did fundamentally change my relationship with God this summer and as I'm transitioning towards the service and ministry God has planned for me, He wanted me to have a public expression of it.
And this is really fitting for who I am. I know some people express themselves through music or art, but for me it was always clothes. So it's good that God is having me change my clothes to express my new personality.
And you know....just like my closet, I'm still starting out. I'm ok with where I am with God because it's a journey and I can look at the finish line as a promise for the future not an evaluation of where I'm not at. At the same time though, I do look forward to the additions in my personality and walk with God (and my closet). :)
love,
Kate
