God wants us to dress modestly. In my opinion, I feel more feminine in skirts and dresses anyways and I can be very modest in them. Most guys also seem to show more respect to me :) ....I actually had random guys say hi while I was shopping or just smile at me & that never happened like ever & I used to wear skinny jeans and make-up. Now I wear a head covering, no make-up most of the time and skirts & t-shirts or country-ish collar shirts. Even though I wear a head covering nobody really stares at me except people at church [they do not agree with my beliefs and I haven't found a church nearby that does :( ]. God will show me the way though. He is always there to listen.
1Ti 2:7 KJV - Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, [and] lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
1Ti 2:8 KJV - I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
1Ti 2:9 KJV - In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
1Ti 2:10 KJV - But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
1Ti 2:11 KJV - Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
1Ti 2:12 KJV - But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
BLESS YOUR HEART!!! You've learned early on that it is the christians that are going to stare!!! (Just try the grocery store on a Sunday afternoon!) I'll be praying for you!!! I also LOVE pyrex dishes! I was thinking just today about doing a post on them while I was ever so lovingly HAND WASHING them. (The only thing in my house I hand wash!) I will most surely be praying for you on this journey. And you are right. My daughter has also noticed the smiles/comments as she is out and about.
