Lilies of the Field

"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matt 6:28-34.

The above passage was the premise for our MOPS meeting yesterday morning as the steering committee put on a fashion show for the rest of the group. As women in the Lord, our inner beauty is truly what is most important and what will leave a lasting legacy behind us. However, as we reflect Christ to the world, there is truth to reflecting in a beautiful, yet modest, manner that we are true princesses of our King. That being said, some of the specific "tips" that were shared included:

~Perfect your posture

~Accentuate the positive

~Make acessories work for you

~Lengthen your silhouette

~Wear trends that flatter

~Choose clothes that fit

~Wear colors, prints, and fabrics that slim

As good as you may look, however, the truth of the matter is that...

"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised." Prov. 31:30
