Have you lengthened your dress lately?
What we see on the outside does not reflect the inside; especially when we are grieving. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? 1 Corinthians 2:11 NKJV
Many people try and cover up their feelings and just push through their loss. After all, society encourages us to be strong.
However, God wants us to “…be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.” Ephesians 4:23-24 NKJV; and, instead of lengthening the dress, put “…on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.” 1 Thessalonians 5:8 NKJV
