Zechariah 3:4 – There are ordinary days and there are special days. On special days, we often wear party clothes; so that what we wear reflects the reasons we celebrate. God takes our guilt away every day, so every day is worth celebrating. Today, put on a smile, put a spring in your step, greet people so that they are glad to have seen you. In short, look as if you are celebrating, don’t let your dress or demeanor drag the day down. This is a Wekivaword.
