I wasted so much time shopping today! My two favorite pairs of jeans have holes in them. Anybody else’s thighs communicate? Yet when I came to the end of my search, I didn’t have any items in my cart. But the reason took me off guard.
I was shopping for things new clothes can’t provide. Searching for feelings of worth, joy, value, affirmation … I came up empty. Maybe even emptier than I when started.
Not sure why I search all the other places before I go the only One that truly fulfills. As a stylist, I know all the fashion tricks, what to look for, what constitutes a good buy, how to spot quality, … and when it’s not actually a fashion issue. (Looks like I’m a little slow on that last one.)
True beauty flows from the heart, from spending time at the feet of Jesus. Let’s not get so caught up, we forget about the internal work sweet friend.
