What should I wear today Jesus?

What does it mean to really follow Jesus?  What would my day look like if I did everything the way he asked me to?  Would he really care to answer if I asked what I should wear that day?  I mean really, in the massive universe full of starts and billions of people, to some one who knows all that was, all that is, and all that will be, does it all really matter?

I've read the bible.  I know my name is written on the palm of his hand and that he knows the numbers of hairs on my head and the stars in the sky, but what is the point of knowing the hairs on my head?  How does that affect in any way how the universe operates?  What difference does it make in the big picture of things?

As I asked the question, Jesus answered.  He said the number of hairs on my head do not affect the way the universe operates.  Campus is so much bigger than the hairs on my head, let alone the universe.

"But I care anyway."

I've been watching "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman" in my free time, and I think Jesus is like Superman, and I'm like Lois Lane.  I constantly get myself in difficult situations and he is always there to take care of me.  No matter how many windows I get pushed through, his arms are always there to catch me.  When I'm scared and can't sleep, all I need to do is rest in him and I will find peace.  He threatens the bad guys, "If you hurt one hair on her head..." because he cares how many hairs I have.

So what would it look like if I asked God what I should wear every morning? I think he would say, "Rachel, I made you a beautiful person.  I have given you these clothes to accent that beauty.  Pick whatever makes you feel good today.  You will look wonderful."
