PEACE is the next beautiful garment in God's wardrobe. Are you peaceful? Or do you fret and worry a lot? Perfect peace comes by fixing your mind on Jesus Christ. Have you tried any peace on lately? It's the most wonderfully comfortable garment in the whole wardrobe, and you'll want to wear it constantly.
Would you be voted one of God's best dressed people? You can be, if you'll wear the wardrobe He's prepared for you.

Our Wardrobe(Forgiveness)
FORGIVENESS-the word itself is beautiful. And, what a wonderful garment to have and to wear. God tells us to forgive others as He has forgiven us. Are you harboring an unforgiving attitude in your heart toward someone? Even if you have been mistreated, you need to put on forgiveness. Even if you haven't been asked to forgive, you need to wear forgiveness. And even if you've forgiven them for the same thing time and again, you need to keep forgiving.
You'll be amazed to see that in forgiving others, you relieve yourself from an immense burden of bitterness and resentment. And you experience God's forgiveness for you in greater measure, so you rid yourself of guilt. Forgiveness will look great on you!

Our Wardrobe (Tolerance)
We've seen that we should wear compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. The next garment is "bearing with one another" - or TOLERANCE. Tolerance is that beautiful quality of allowing other people to be different from us, even different from what we think they should be, and loving them and appreciating them for who they are. If we wore tolerance to work every day, we wouldn't be upset when people didn't do just what we thought they should do. We'd allow them more room for error. We'd bend over backwards to understand where they're coming from, and to give them more time to grow and learn.
God has to remind me that he deals with each of us individually.Just because He is teaching me one lesson doesn't mean that all my friends have to learn it simultaneously! Tolerance is the garment that allows us to "bear with" others, and it'll look good on you!
