Regalia

What are you waiting for? Return to your God! Commit yourself in love, in justice! Wait for your God, and don’t give up on him—ever! ~ Hosea 12:6 (MSG)

Since God, loves you more than you can imagine and considers you to be unique from among all people, he has chosen you to be part of his special forces. So proudly wear the entire uniform -- including the sense of compassion, the acts of kindness, the humble attitude toward self, the quiet strength that is meekness, and most certainly cap it all with patience. What unique and striking regalia! ~ Colossians 3:12 (ABP)

Dear God, thank you for enlisting us in your great cause of rescuing creation from hate and injustice. Sometimes I get confused about who I'm serving. So many other authorities think they have the right to set the agenda for the world. And sometimes I go along with them. So, keep me focused on your call. Help me to live as a warrior of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. I know that will most certainly bring honor to you. Amen.
