Dress Up!
Remember playing dress-up as a kid? You’d get in your mom’s or dad’s old clothes and role-play adulthood. Tea parties. Restaurants. House. School. Today “dressing up” has hit an all-time low. We joke that during the days of COVID, the person who wore sweat pants the most days a month was the true winner in the pandemic. The Bible is filled with mentions of clothing – both literal and figurative, beginning in Genesis with the first desire for clothing after humankind’s fall. Through the New Testament epistles especially, the metaphor of “dressing up” takes on a special significance, directing us to express our internal faith in external efforts, the way we “put on” certain items of clothing.
