As I’ve made my way through the life of Moses this past year, something occurred to me that hadn’t before:
In addition to their regular weekly rhythm of life and annual festivals, and even the seven-year cycle (more about that another day), God’s people practiced a monthly sacrifice.
Now, I realize this is a stretch in terms of application, but the question that occurred to me is, “what in my life isn’t working because I have not developed any kind of monthly rhythm in my life?” The answer? All kinds of stuff. Like getting my bills paid. My filing done. And my wardrobe rotated.
And because I have been a slacker in terms of getting my wardrobe rotated, I’m having Sunday wardrobe trauma. So I went through my calendar and blocked out a day every month to plan some Sunday outfits. I’d like some more creative options, but until then:
Oh, Rebecca, I love the idea of planning my Sunday wardrobe! I do at least normally plan what I’m going to wear by Saturday night – which sometimes means I lay in bed about to fall asleep and determine what I have in my closet that would work. But it sure would cut down on the hassle to have a month’s worth of outfits picked out. After all, that’s not that many. Kinda like a menu plan only for clothes. 🙂 Thanks for the inspiration!
You are so organized – I’m impressed! I hate to admit how little time and thought goes into my church wardrobe, though I usually get the girls and Gabe squared away the night before. Great idea – might even try it! 😉
