The Color Purple...


And they clothed Him with purple;
and they twisted a crown of 
thorns, put it on His head,
and began to salute Him, "Hail,
King of the Jews!"


~Mark 15: 17-18 (NKJV)


I was doing bible study again with the fam. and this scripture caught my eye because of the word purple, seeing that my favorite color is purple! I guess it made me realize how, they beat, bruised, and scarred Jesus. Afterwards placing upon Him a purple robe. It made me then think more of the color purple and what it represents. ROYALTY...and how they could have clothed Him with any other color clothing, but they chose purple.
Before God showed me this, when people would ask me why I like the color purple so much, I would say, "Because it's pretty." But now I will say, "Because it reminds me of my Savior and what He did for me. And it shows me that with me being God's child, I will one day abide in His ROYAL Heavenly Kingdom!"
