I am so thankful that I have clothes to wear. I'm glad that you do to. Clothes do a number of things. They help us to be modest in a world where modesty is a necessary thing. They offer an outlet for creativity - don't  cackle so loudly at the lady wearing the "Jetsons" inspired dress or hat. They provide warmth in the winter's chill and protection from the summer's sunny rays.

So as you get dressed for the day this morning, whether wearing a suit, a dress, or a T-shirt and jeans, be thankful for your clothes. I know I am.

The question of wearing a tie is usually not one that I raise often. When I was in the classroom as a teacher, I typically wore a tie every day. As a pastor I do when necessary (funerals, weddings, etc.) and when I preach it is often in an open-collar, but just as likely as with a tie on.

And then comes Christmas. I like wearing scenes of the season, but from the religious and the civilian traditions. So, when you visit our church during the Holiday season you'll see me "simply wearing a wonderful Christmas tie!" (enjoy the song that inspired this post:)
