Scripture: Galatians 3:24-27; 4:1-7; 5:22-25

Playing dress-up is a classic kids’ pastime. Children love to try on their parents’ clothes and pretend to be grown-up. They play at being moms and dads, going to work, making food, and taking care of sick people, until one day, they are able to fill those clothes. As children of God, we also are encouraged to try on grown-up clothes, or, as the Apostle Paul puts it, to “clothe yourselves with Christ.”
