“Your Divine calling is not a hobby.”
“Diluting yourself does not prove you affable; neither does occasionally sampling foolishness prove that you are “balanced”. Be vigilant to the pernicious ideas that your glory is too heavy to be carried without ever being set aside: Your Divine calling is not a hobby.”

About the “Change Your Garments” series:
This body of work is near and dear to my heart as it represents a defining season of my life. Deprogramming is like changing one’s garments: this series testifies to the transition—perhaps my own?—and how it can “look” when one participates without contest. When you learn truth, “dress” your spirit accordingly
Queens and servants, sojourners and prophetesses—all wear garments that indicate who they are: what they’ve been bred to be. Garments represent achieved process or change of life. They represent the season of a journey now completed; arrival to a new lifecycle; acceptanxe and operation in a mandate that has its own uniform.
In everyday life when we change clothes it’s an indication to others that we’re about to take a new course of action: fix dinner, go out for the evening (little black dress), workout (gym shorts), turn in for the night (hair bonnet and PJs), etc. However in a weightier sense, when we have spiritually changed our garments it’s displayed in the jokes we nolonger laugh at, the causes we nolonger support, the new focus we have, the TV shows we don’t watch, the parties we don’t attend, and the new way we think and speak. When we have spiritually changed our garments we ade signifying to ourselves and to others thay we have abandoned an old way of being.
Change your garments. Sing a new song. Joyful beings don’t wear mourner’s rags, Queens don’t wear peasant’s robes and prophetesses don’f dress like those who don’t hear from the Most High. Elder matriarchs wear garments that tell parting crowds their seen and unseen role in their family and community.
Garments tell stories and create narratives. They indicate culture and rank. When your life changes so do your spirit and soul’s garments. Dressing outside of your function is not an option when you are on this journey. Change your mind, change your spirit’s clothes too.
much love and regeneration be yours
