Signature Style for 2009

I couldn't help but be a little introspective this morning with it being the first day of a brand new year. I didn't make any resolutions this year. There are still so many from 2008 that I'm still working on! However, as I was doing my quiet time this morning I was struck by this question; what am I going to wear???? And for once, it had nothing to do with the sophisticated with just a twist of rock and roll chic, signature style I am so trying to cultivate.

Revelation 19:7-8,16: Let us rejoice and shout for joy exulting and triumphant! Let us celebrate and ascribe to Him glory and honor, for the marriage of the Lamb at last has come, and His bride has prepared herself. She has been permitted to dress in fine, radiant linen, dazzling and white- for the fine linen represents the righteousness (the upright, just and godly living, deeds, and conduct, and right standing with God) of the saints (God's holy people) And on HIS garment and on His thigh He has a name inscribed KING OF KIGS AND LORD OF LORDS!!!

It hit me anew this morning...The Lord has clothed me in garmets of salvation and robes of rightousness, dazzling white, so that I can be presented blameless and spotless before the one who's robe simply says KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

This year, I want those robes to show. I want them to dazzle the world around me. Because the fact that a sinner such as me, will one day stand before the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS (I'm sorry I just can't help but type that in all caps...it thrills me to the core) blameless, spotless, pure and white; that is something worth celebrating. It's something worth sharing!!

My prayer for this year is that I would clothe myself daily in the fine linen of godly living, deeds and conduct that acuratly represent my right standing with God. That is what I pray will become my signature style for this new year!
