Everyone Wear White Socks
AUGUST 25, 2026
Daily Reading—Psa. 97-102 / Rom. 16
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Romans 14:1-3 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations. For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs. Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
As a young boy, if I wore dark-colored socks, my feet would sweat and smell terrible. It was so bad that my sister caught me sleeping and sprayed Lysol on them. My dad had a similar issue and told me that if I wore white socks, it would help. He was right; it did. So, to this day, I wear white socks. Now, how crazy would it be for me to tell everyone to wear white socks for them to be a good Christian? Socks, or any apparel for that matter, will not determine a person’s salvation.
I think we should always do our best for the Lord, including what we wear. However, one person’s best may be a lot different from another person’s best. God does not look at the outward appearance; He looks at the heart.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
Shouldn’t we try to do the same thing?
