Put On Christ

I have a overcoat that was my father’s.  Occasionally I put it on, just to remember him.  Yes Karen it fits me.  It is a full length overcoat.   It covers me from my shoulders to my knees. 
 
In my devotions this morning, this verse stood out:  “For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have PUT ON CHRIST.” (Gal. 3: 27)  Like that overcoat, when we submit to the commandments of the Lord and are baptized, Christ covers us.  He is then all that people see.  He is not only in us, but He COVERS US. 
 
Today, who covers you?  Have you put on Christ?  Think about it.
