So I was able to snap a picture of my outfit tonight, because it was pretty much the first time I sported this skirt, and it looked really nice against my patterned asymmetric cardigan. And because I didn’t take pictures of anything else that went on in my day. And also because I felt good. Not too bad for a thrown together outfit.
Asymmetric cardigan: thrifted
Slitted midi skirt: a cheap shop in Brooklyn
Beige layering top: thrifted Old Navy that I picked up in Cali
Necklace: Forever21
Black wedges: Payless (a very comfortable wedge height)
Anyways, moving onto the bigger picture…
I love how every day, there’s always something to do for God. The list never ends.
But tonight I went to worship service at my church, the Church of Christ. I love midweek services as much as I love Sunday services. I am able to reflect on the blessings God has sprinkled onto me since the last time I worshipped Him, and I was able to worship and thank Him again tonight.
Tonight I was reminded by this verse from the lovely book of Proverbs:
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do, and he will show you the right way. Honor the Lord by making him an offering from the best of all that your land produces.”
– Proverbs 3:5-6,9
Since I haven’t been in school for what feels like a while now, I have become very aware to what I do from the moment I wake up to the moment I fall asleep. And this verse has really guided me in almost all my decisions. So whatever I do, I always ask myself if this would make God happy, if it would honor Him. I have to make sure what I do is made using the best parts of me, my heart, and my whole being.
God gives you every single thing that you have.
You have to make sure you give back to him a sincere thanksgiving.
Trust and remember Him always.
much love,
joy
Joy in the Life
