Living Proof
Sunday, October 7th, 2012
As a young
woman in Christ it constantly kills me to see what teenage girls wear. It kills
me to see that women in my church and attend my youth group wear inappropriate
clothing. Modesty. When I think about it, I do not believe that any girl wants
to be remembered as the one that wore short shorts or low cut shirts. A girl
wants to be remembered on how beautiful her personality is. What you wear is
sending a message. If you want to dress sexy, that message will be sent to
everyone who sees you and you will get attention from others. The wrong message
and attention will be sent. Philippians 4:8 tell us, “Whatever is true,
whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely,
whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such
things.” This is how we should be presenting ourselves, by living out
Philippians 4:8. Not only by the way we dress but by the way we carry ourselves
too. As a Christian, we want to be known as that, and have someone just look at
us and know something is different about us. Are your clothes representing that
you’ve been saved? If not, rethink what you wear in the morning. By dressing
modestly, respect is gained and a reputation can be changed.
