Modesty

Modesty. It seems like it's slowly fading away. Seriously, it's hard to find clothes that are modest. Jeans are becoming smaller and tighter. Shirts are becoming lower. Shorts are becoming waaaay shorter. It's ridiculous. 


This blog is basically for girls. Girls, please, don't be showing off your body. I understand wanting to look pretty. But you can do that while still being modest. Your body is for you and you alone, until you get married, then it's for you and your spouse. It's not meant for everyone else to see. When you're wearing clothes that are showing too much skin, it can cause your brothers to stumble. Think about it, someday when you're standing in front of God, He might ask you why you dressed that way that caused someone to stumble. What would you say? "It was the style." "It looked cute." "That's what everyone else was wearing." Seems kinda silly to me. Rarely do people think of the effects that their choices have. Dressing the way society tells you to in order to be accepted isn't worth it if you're compromising your beliefs and morals. It's really not worth it for eternity. Just think about it. 

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says, "Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."

You're body is a temple of Christ. Treat it that way! When you think of a temple of Christ, do you picture a girl with a low cut tank top and booty shorts? Cause I sure don't! So why should we dress that way? 

These are my thoughts of today. Sorry if it was more of ranting than anything else. :)
