“I’m walking across the campus of my so-called ‘Christian’ school, and I can’t believe how girls dress. It’s hard enough for us guys to have pure thoughts as it is without being tempted by scantily-clad students everywhere!”
Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: First Timothy 2:9 says that women should wear “respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control.” The word respectable here means: orderly, decent, not causing distraction or temptation. It’s so easy to just accept the latest styles and not even think about modesty. But when we do, we’re likely to cause the men around us distraction and temptation.
“We are so stimulated by what we see.”
Nancy: Have you given modesty much attention? The next time you look in the mirror, ask yourself: "Will this cause distraction or temptation?" Women, let’s show modesty and self-control.
With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth.
