I have decided to no longer cover my head. It was becoming a hindrance in my walk with the Lord. I can't really explain the why's and how's. The past several months of wearing it have been oddly different. Not necessarily bad but not really good either. When I didn't wear it I felt more like myself compared to when I did wear it, I felt like a stranger. Now, I'm not usually one to make decisions based on feelings. I don't think our walk with the Lord should be all about that. But, I know that this decision is the right one for me.
A few weeks after my decision to not cover my head, I got a new hair cut. I really like it! I feel like me again. A dear friend of mine actually suggested the cut and I couldn't stop thinking about it. So, I decided to just do it. She even came with me to the salon to get it cut. I needed her there to make sure it was cut correctly. I decided to go short. And, in the heat we've been having here, the back of my neck thanks me! Lol!
So, there you have it. After several months of head covering I'm back to not wearing one. It was an experience and I am glad I gave it a try. I am also glad that the Lord loves me for the person I am right now. And that He is creating me into the person He wants me to become. This life is not about what we want, it's about what He wants. He created us and knows what's best for each one of us. I pray that we all listen to Him, not our sinful selves!
