Modest is Hottest.
Posted June 28, 2008
Before I went to camp the second week to be a counselor, God laid on my heart a message to give to my girls on the first night of camp. It was about modesty and waiting for your husband. It went like this: In Luke 15:11-32, it talks about the lost son who wanted his inheritance early. He asked for it and it was givin to him. He left home and became very popular. All of his friends loved him because he gave them wine and luxeries. He spent everything he had and a great famine came. He had to work and feed the pigs. He was so hungry that he wanted to eat the pig slop. The same story applies to our bodies. If we show everything we have before the time comes like the son spent all of his money before his father died, we will have nothing left for our husbands. If we "save up" for after we're married, we'll be much richer. Now, when the son realized that his father's slaves were richer than he was, he went back to his father. When his father saw him a ways off, he sent for him and put a robe on his back, rings on his fingers, and sandals on his feet. He covered him. Just like the son's father took him back in gladly, our Father in heaven will take you back and forgive you.
