It happened again yesterday at New Breath Church. My Ukrainian friends seem to be giving me a hint. Two of the young people complimented my shirt. One of them told me the reason- “it’s not blue.”

Why would she say that? Perhaps because my normal outfit is a blue shirt and khaki pants. In fact there may have been times a shirt is on sale as in summer clearance, and the price so low, that I have bought three or four all the same in blue.

Because of the input from my young friends at New Breath over the months, I have expanded out the other colors. I even figured out how to do so on Amazon so I do not need to go into a store and do the dreaded deed of shopping in a store.

Perhaps you are thinking of the classic verse for this scenario of Proverbs 27:17-As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.

That might be applicable. What I do know is that we are created to live in relationship with God and with others and in such relationships growth happens even for a man who has worn blue shirts almost exclusively for years.

Thank you for reading. God Bless.

  1. You may find you enjoy celebrating color, Matt!

  2. always good to pick up on hints, even if they might be subconscious hints. I am poor at catching hints.

  3. Hey, Steve Jobs wore the same thing every day for years. It allows you to focus on more important things. I think Khakis with a loud Hawaiian shirt suits you best. 😊
