đź“–Deuteronomy 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.
Most people that know me know that wearing pants was not my thing for a very very very very long time. And, if I'm honest I still struggle with it based on this Scripture above. I believe skirts and dresses are the prettiest and best for girls. And men's clothes should stay men's clothes.
But, I love hiking and jumping and playing and biking and living! Hence, if you’re going to wear only dresses and skirts, I teach girls should wear pants underneath for modesty. What about pants? Are they skin tight? Are they revealing? Are they for attention or practicality? What about swimsuits or bikinis? What about work attire? How much legs should show? So many questions!
đź’›My heart's desire is to please The Lord, yet not be legalistic.
đź’› My heart's desire is to be feminine, yet modest.
đź’› My heart's desire is to be a Christ-like example, yet know and show my humanity.
đź’› My heart's desire is to throw away all the rules and just be real!
đź’› My heart's desire is old-fashioned AND new-fashioned.
đź’› My heart's desire is to not care about me, but only care about HIM!
đź“– 1 Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.
🌸 5 Modesty Tips 🌸
1.Dress with intention, not insecurity.
Choose what lets your beauty show without making your body the entire conversation.
2.Leave something to discovery.
Modesty doesn’t mean hiding yourself. It means understanding that everything valuable does not require
immediate access.
3.Let confidence replace attention-seeking.
You can walk into a room beautifully dressed and still carry a quiet confidence that says, I already know who I
am.
4.Practice modesty with your words, too.
You don’t have to announce every accomplishment, explain every blessing, or respond to every criticism.
5.Remember that modesty should never erase personality.
Don’t compare your journey to anyone else’s. Seek The Lord for His direction.
