Blessed with Royalty

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people . . .

1 PETER 2:9

Each year the fashion and design industry name new trends for the coming year. These trends cover not only finishes and fine touches but also color. Pantone releases a “Color of the Year” and designers work to incorporate this color into art, fashion, and homes. Recently, the color named was Ultraviolet—a dramatic purple shade.

Prompted by the new color choice, I thought of adding some ultraviolet, or purple hues around our home. The Bible speaks of purple and we know it represents royalty. As children of God, we are considered part of that royal lineage. Think of it, a specially placed blanket or pillow in our home can remind us of who we are in Christ. Couldn’t we all use a reminder that this world is not our home on those long days—the days that are falling apart, when we are desperate and in pain? Our final destination is in heavenly places with our Father the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!


design tip

Yearly trends come and go. Don’t invest a lot of money, instead find inexpensive ways to add accessories, pillows, or wall art to highlight a special color.




Lord, I pray that I will pursue you by being intentional with my time and energy as I meditate on your Word. Do the transformational work in my heart and mind so that I may look like you.
