PENTECOSTAL MODESTY
OCTOBER 6,2021
MODESTY
I’m sorry if my skirts and dresses have offended you, I mean no disrespect. Most people know that Apostolic woman don’t wear pants or shorts because of our convictions, but from the bottom of my heart, please know that my convictions on wearing those items do not make me judge those that do. It does not bother me if you wear pants or shorts, and I hope it doesn’t bother you if I only wear skirts or dresses.
You see, it’s a comfort thing for me, too. Could you imagine what it would feel like if you had to go to the grocery store and walk down the bread aisle in nothing but your underwear? Can you imagine how exposed you would feel? How out of place you might feel? That is how I believe I would feel outside of my modest attire. It’s a “me” thing, and I certainly hope you can respect that decision I’ve made. (Obviously that’s a huge jump from wearing underwear to wearing britches š but, that’s the best analogy I can think of as far as comfort - or lack there of.)
I’ve heard so many people make comments about Apostolic woman. Bitter and nasty comments. Making it sound as if we think we are high and mighty because we have chose a life of sacrifice so we must feel like we’re entitled, or something. That is NOT the case at all! As a convert, I found my new identity in Christ and this is what He has called me to do. I’m the daughter of a king. The ONE true KING. And I’m going to look like it, talk like it, and act like it. I want to represent Him in the way my heart and soul tell me too. My walk may look different than yours and that is completely okay!
"When women veils her body in modesty she is not hiding her self from men she is revealing her dignity to them. 1 Timothy 2:9-10"
