“... and yet you do not lack...”
“You may feel as though you are a failure because you’ve not achieved success by their standards. And yet you do not lack in vision, peace, healing integrity and virtue. The lie is that your not having their version of wealth means that you are unworthy and unproductive. Reject it, refusing to exchange your substance for their trinkets. Your glorious legacy is not currency to purchase a seat in their coliseums.”

Queens and servants, sojourners and prophetesses—all wear garments that indicate who they are: what they’ve been bred to be. Garments represent achieved process or change of life. They represent the season of a journey now completed; arrival to a new lifecycle; acceptanxe and operation in a mandate that has its own uniform.
In everyday life when we change clothes it’s an indication to others that we’re about to take a new course of action: fix dinner, go out for the evening (little black dress), workout (gym shorts), turn in for the night (hair bonnet and PJs), etc. However in a weightier sense, when we have spiritually changed our garments it’s displayed in the jokes we nolonger laugh at, the causes we nolonger support, the new focus we have, the TV shows we don’t watch, the parties we don’t attend, and the new way we think and speak. When we have spiritually changed our garments we ade signifying to ourselves and to others thay we have abandoned an old way of being.
Change your garments. Sing a new song. Joyful beings don’t wear mourner’s rags, Queens don’t wear peasant’s robes and prophetesses don’f dress like those who don’t hear from the Most High. Elder matriarchs wear garments that tell parting crowds their seen and unseen role in their family and community.
Garments trll stories and create narratives. They indicate culture and rank. When your life changes so do your spirit and soul’s garments. Dressing outside of your function is not an option when you are on this journey. Change your mind, change your spirit’s clothes too.
much love and regeneration be yours
