Heaven's best dressed?

I have never been a shopper. Some might say my fashion sense is pretty poor. But I have never really given it much thought. I don't follow fashion trends. I am most comfortable in jeans and tees, jogging pants and sweatshirts. There is a time for dresses and frilly things. To me it all doesn't matter. To some it's a big deal. I remember a friend who had to look just right just to come across the street to my house. It's meaningless to me. I am simple, I wear pretty much no make up 95% of the time. That's me take it like it is. I got to thinking one day about all the nonsense to do with the commercialism of it all, the pressures young people have today about how they look and what they wear. It's actually pretty sad. Then it came to mind, there is only one type of clothing I seek and desire for. This one I must have no doubt about it. I can live without many things but this gown is a must have! Do you agree?


Our Heavenly Cloak

Sifting through clothes of all shades and hues
What designer is in the news
To wear white all year 
will give someone a fright
judgment all the time
some clothes we wear can be a crime
lives are started in the nude
but as we grow we turn rude
in our search for the best garment of all
only to find what we seek
is barely enough for the meek
Garments fit for the King is in 
what we should be dressed
A garment white as snow
would be perfect for all don't you know
This is the gown I do seek
As I wait for a my prince to arrive
I must do all that I can while I'm alive
to prepare to wear this gown
For my prince will come down
And whisk me away to his palace in the sky
So glamour up if you must
But me I’d rather not 
For these fashion rules, my prince, they disgust
Come as you are goes oh so far.!
To wear white all year gives me delight!

Revelation 3:4-5Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not sorted their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white for they are worthy. He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels.

This poetry is not only Praise to God but it is also a testimony of His work in my life. Even when I haven't paid attention, He was there through it all. God Loves Me even though I am not perfect and that's enough for me.

About Me

We all have gifts given to us by The Lord God above even before we were a glint in our parents eye. The Lord designed each one of us to have a gift. What we choose to do with the gifts he gives us is what matters. I chose to share my gift with the world. I'm not a professional. I have had no educational training in poetry writing other than basic english that they teach you in school. All my poems are inspired by God's word and the desire to have a better relationship with him. I have also been inspired by life events that God has led me to healing for. I am a mother of 2 boys trying to do my best to please the father and raise my boys to live the same way.
