Excellent. Reminds me of Titus 2:10, an amazing verse which proclaims the purpose of our good deeds and character is to adorn the doctrine of God OUR SAVIOR in every respect. Adorn is quite the little word, isn't it? Again, reminds me of God ADORNING us in the righteousness of Christ.
Adorned indeed!
