Modesty Mission

As I've said before, I love Pinterest! It's great for gathering and storing ideas and inspiration. I gather so many different photos from Modesty ideas to backgrounds for my phone. I think I may have too many boards! Well, I have a few that I would like to share with you today. Just click on a heading to be brought to the board and don't worry, it'll open in a new tab. Modest Fashion Here is where I collect lots of photos of beautiful dresses and skirts. It gives me plenty of ideas and inspiration for my own dressing. This would be a great place to look if you want to buy new dresses or skirts too. Sometimes I wish I could just have all these beautiful clothes. But who would need that many? As I'm writing this there are over 200 photos on this board! Here are a few of my favourite photos from it.        Head Covering Tutorials There aren't very many pins in this one. Just twelve at the moment. But for a beginner like...

Today I was looking around this supper cool site called Zondervan.com . In the end I was looking through some really cool bibles! I believe that having a bible and using it is very important and everyone should have a physical version! There are SO many really cool Bibles that are designed for specific people. I have some digging and today I want to show you a few of my personal favourites (A few I would LOVE to own). So if you're looking for a new Bible for yourself or for somebody else, I've got you covered. Let's go! For Trendy Teen Girls This is the NIV Bible for Teen Girls .

There is SO much to learn about modesty from Romans 12. Paul has a lot of wisdom to pass onto us. At first you may not see it all, but let me show you just as my big sister did this morning.  We will be mostly looking at the first two verses, but first, go read the chapter, then come back and we'll have a look at it together. You're ready now? Okay let's go! Firstly, there are many commands as to how we should act in this chapter and I'm sure you saw those. They are easy to find and understand. So we will do them first. I have found 17 in this chapter. They are all about our outwardly modesty, behaviour and character. Don't be worldly- v.2 Be humble- v.3 Be united- v.4 Use your gifts- v.6-8 Love others- v.10 Don't Hate- v.10 Don't be lazy- v.11 Be hopeful- v.12 Be patient- v.12 Help others- v.13 Be hospitable- v.13 Don't seek revenge- v.14, 17-19 Be kind to your enemies- v.14, 20-21 Be empathetic- v.15 Live in harmony- v.16 Don...

I was reading a short article/ post by a young women named Sarah S. Wilson on her community named Modest Fashion on Google+ and I loved it. I didn't want to just rewrite since it was her experience and her words. So here's what she had to say. "So in church this morning my pastor was preaching on modesty after he read the passage when Peter was "naked" and put on a coat before he jumped into the water to meet Jesus. Today's definition of "naked" and the Bible's definition of "naked" are completely different, so let me explain. When the Bible speaks of a person being "naked", it means that a man or woman is showing their shoulders, chest (complete torso), and thighs/knees. Ladies, in all honesty, if we're showing our chest, shoulders, knees and thighs, we're being immodest according to the Bible." There are ample examples in the bible for God's  design for modesty. All we have to do is open his...

Hello, I have already talked about what our roles are as women vs. men. And as a part of that role we are to respect and submit to men wether they are your husband, boyfriend, father, brother, pastor or friend. Here are three simple ways you can do so; Firstly, listen to him! "What does this entail?" you may ask. You can start by giving him your full attention and eye contact. Refrain from interrupting him and try to understand and digest what he is saying and respond respectfully. Do things for him! This is a simple one. As I said in a previous post, our role as a woman is to serve and support your husband (Or other men). So, we can do this by doing things for him such as keeping your house/room tidy, cooking for him, do grocery shopping or help out around the house if your still young like me. You could even do things he enjoys with him every once in a while. And finally, be a respectable woman. That's right, the best way to respect men is to be respectab...

Hello, Are men and women equal? Or are women under men because he man first? God created men and women equal! This is very important. He also created us with different roles. This is also very important. God created women for men, for us to submit to them. This does not mean the women are less than men or that we have no value. God calls men to respect and love women, especially their wives. There were many laws put in place in the old testament to ensure that women were taken care of by men. God created us all equal. We each have different a job and purpose in life that is unique to our gender. One cannot go without the other as our roles complement each other. This is the way God designed it to be. God created women to be wives and mothers, to cook and clean and without that can you imagine what this world would be like? Now I am not saying that men are not allowed to cook or clean. In fact a husband that helps out around the house is always respected in my book. God ...

Hello, Beginning on the 12th of June 2016 I have tried to only wear skirts and dresses. I don't wear the religiously. If I have to wear pants than I will. But, I wear skirts and dresses as much as I can. My decision was based on four main factors. Biblical; It say in Deuteronomy that women should not wear men's cloths. Now I know that today pants aren't only men's cloths. But skirts are definitely women's cloths. Historical ; Did you know that women only started wearing pants in the 1930;s and 1940's. That means we have only been wearing them for 86-76 years! Me ; It was very important for me to be comfortable and enjoy the new way I would dress. I started by wearing them for a few days before making my mind up. I was to take note of how it made me feel. The results... I felt feminine. I would spin around and dance, I loved it. For some reason, It made me feel more humble, quiet, respectful. Others (Men) ; Another very important e...

Hello, This is my modesty mission. My modesty mission is my journey to become a modest woman of God and I'm letting you tag along for the journey. I hope you can learn something too! :) So, what is modesty? What does it mean to be modest? Here are a few definitions from a dictionary; Modest (Adjective) - Having or showing a moderate or humble estimate of one's merits, importance, etc.; free from vanity, egotism, boastfulness, or great pretensions. So, Then what does the bible say? Well it doesn't say modesty is.... But it does give us some hints. So here are some verses that might help us decide what modesty is. P.S. I use New Kings James.   1 Peter 3:3-4 3  Do not let your adornment be merely outward; arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel, 4  rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. ...
