The Kimono Collection

The Kimono Collection

Kimonos are traditional Japanese wear, typically worn to celebrate special events or festivals. The richest kimonos are made of pure silk and are finely-crafted garments. Such elegance reminds me of scriptures encouraging us to adorn ourselves with robes of righteousness.

 

Principles:

• Robes of righteousness are of great beauty

• Kimonos can take an hour to put on – patience beautifies

• Righteousness is the fashion of queens

• The gorgeous sash (obi) ‘seals’ the kimono – love completes all other virtues

Scriptures

• Take away the filthy garments from him …See, I have removed your iniquity from you, and I will clothe you with rich robes - Zech 3:4

• I put on righteousness, and it clothed me - Job 29:14

• Put on your strength, O Zion; Put on your beautiful garments - Isa 52:1

• Put on the Lord Jesus Christ - Rom 13:14

 

Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another … But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.

Col 3:12-15
