Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
It is interesting to see that these virtues can be put on as clothing. These are spiritual garments that can be worn in a similar way as we wear our physical clothes.
Each morning we choose what we will wear for the day. In a similar way we can choose to put on compassion - feeling empathy for others. We can put on kindness - showing love for each other; humility will prevent our ego from getting out of hand; gentleness is that quiet dignity that we all need when we come face to face with rudeness and negativity. We must never leave home without patience. It will probably get us back home safely.
These clothing will never go out of style!
