"...rend your heart, and not your garments..." Joel 2:13
Many at times, I have come across people who adhere to modesty in dress as a uniform that comes on and off. When they attend church services there is a type of clothing that they put on in contrast to when they are not at church. These people have not fully grasped the essence of modesty.
They find it easier to 'rend their garments' - in other words, abide by the outward show of modesty without a changed heart. God is saying to such people to not just abide by the outward 'rules' of Christian dress, but to give of their hearts to Him to purge and transform, so that modesty is not just a Sunday affair, but a lifestyle that gives glory to God.
Are you one of those people whose heart is still filthy with lies, cursing, anger, pride, gossip yet you dress so modestly and innocently on Sunday? I was once that person, and I was miserable. There is nothing more freeing, and satisfying to allow Jesus Christ to come into your heart and do a transformative work in you. God is searching for women that are pure, gracious, and inwardly beautiful. Give Him a chance today to do the inward work so that your outward appearance will emanate his intended beauty!
