Bind

Prov. 3:3 (NKJV)
Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart

Over the top, gaudy, and most of the time cheap jewelry has come to be known as "bling." Bling is known for its sparkle and size and serves to show the extravagant wealth of the wearer. On the other side of the coin is the what we should put on as wise children. Where bling is often imitation, we are called to put on truth. Where bling is about extravagant self indulgence, we are called to put on mercy. This Christian bling does not shine big here, but in the light of eternity it will shine forever.
