The Lord has given me a multitude of opportunities that I could have never had without Him. As a I go forward on this journey of discovering where and what He needs me to do, I’ve started designing t-shirts. There are a multitude of t-shirt designers out there and I recently discovered many companies have gotten into the Christian t-shirt selling game as well. I love my dresses, but most times I’d most prefer to wear a cute t-shirt with jeans or tights and call it a day. I can’t do this so much at work, but when I get home and on the weekends, this is what you’ll most likely see me wear.
I’ve noticed that some of the t-shirts that have “Christian” sayings on them are just words or try to entice the younger generations. Perhaps I’m a bit different but those are the ones that throw me off the most. It’s almost as if this has just become another fad or gimmick to sale apparel and make money. In my opinion its growing to be something just to wear as if I am a fan of Christ and not a true believer and follower. It doesn’t feel as if it’s different than the skull and cross bone and other grim features also sold and super popular these days.
I deem myself a somewhat of an introvert, however some ppl I encounter or have presented in front of think the opposite. It’s no one but the Lord who allows and gives me energy especially in environments I’m not use to. Believe me, it’s a struggle, I do try to run, but He always nudges at my heart and asks “Why?”. I have no real excuse, perhaps, we’ll call it the “Jonah syndrome”, who knows! He kicks my butt right back. Sometimes I have thoughts so much on my heart that I can’t express or I’d like to share but think that some people may not understand. I was having a sort of alone time with Him one night, and He gave me this idea. I wanted to wear something that represented my faith, thoughts that I didn’t usually see on shirts; something that allowed me to show what my heart was screaming. And at the same time, of course, I also wanted them to be cute, comfy and dare I say conversation starters. I let the Lord lead and began placing the thoughts down. .I’ve just started, gotten some stares, compliments and a few convos started from the ones I’ve worn so far so I wanted to share.
