what do you wear??

I have to get something off my chest (it's not big and can't hold alot).

I hate when women wear clothes to church that are more designed for a night on the town. There. I said it. I don't think things like spaghetti straps, strapless tops, mini skirts, one shoulder tops, etc. are meant for God's house. I just really believe that when you are there you should be modest. I don't care what season it is, you can find something cute and comfortable that will cover you up. I find it especially distracting when I am sitting with my husband and another woman (or sometimes young girls) sit in front of us and their undergarments are hanging out, or I know suddenly about all of their moles on their back, or that they aren't wearing any undergarments. I mean really, ladies, didn't your Mama teach you better??? I'm not saying you have to go to church in a turtleneck and ankle-length skirts, but you should atleast be covered up. I don't think exposing your thighs, bare shoulders, back, cleavage, or butt crack in church (or many other places, for that matter) is appropriate. For one, you are supposed to be in church for worship. A time to honor Christ and be there to honor His place in your life. Not to look like you didn't have time to change out of the outfit you wore to the bar last night. Maybe you don't have friends in your life that will tell you that this is not appropriate...let me be that friend. IT IS NOT APPROPRIATE. You might say that my husband shouldn't be looking at you. Well, guess what, when you go around half dressed...everyone is looking at you, and if you didn't know that all ready you have been under a rock. It is possible to dress modestly and look cute for church. I do it every Sunday. Just sayin'. Think about the image you are creating for yourself, and the place you are going to wear it, and who might be sitting around you. Would you really want to be wearing that outfit to meet Jesus?

Whew...I feel better now.
