Day 36 and my wife is out without me tonight dressed as a pixie! Just like the old days when I first met her?? Everybody thinks I'm the wild one in the relationship but there is a lot more to my wife than most people know - pixie dancing on a Friday night is pretty tame!
Of course my wife was born on Halloween .....so that can explain a lot.
Dressing up seems to be the theme of today. I got dressed up earlier (shirt, tie and a suit) to take my friend Dale's funeral. During the funeral they showed pictures of Dale's recent wedding ...and my fear was that they'd see me dressed up in the same suit for the wedding as I had on for his funeral. yep - I possess one suit. I do have a change of ties - one cheery, one sad - I bought the suit en route to Scotland for my mum's funeral ...and decided if I go with the dark brown color I could use it not only for funerals but for weddings - the one 2 times I get dressed up.
Dressing up.
I got a text from a friend just a few days ago about feeling all 'undone'. Got me thinking.
We spend time and effort dressing up, while God often leaves us undone!
Yesterday was an undone day for me.
Today I dressed up.
Which day was I a better follower of Christ?
Maybe this dressing up lark isn't all it's made up to be.
Maybe being undone is healthier for our souls.
My intentional following today involved some reflective thinking about faith, life, authenticity and honesty.
