Dressing up to go Out?

What a wonderful gift God gave us ladies, our bodies! Which are temple of the Holy Spirit, yes, this might sound like your grandmother telling you, "Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit so take care of it" but yes is totally true. So lets talk about our mentality when the weekend comes and we are ready to go out with friends or a guy on a date. Do you think of your body as the temple of the Holy Spirit when you are choosing your outfit for the night? Mm, sometimes we forget right? Or we remember but we ignored it, because that night we want to draw attention and we forget about God. We go for the cutest and shortest dress in the closet and some amazing high hills. We forget that dressing like that can provoke lust in men around us, and attract them for our bodies and let past along the guy who can be interested in us for who we are and what is inside. "Men should initiate the gift of love, because is in their nature and imprinted in their bodies, and honors the women" -Jason Evert. When guys fail to do this, some women feel like they need to show more skin and provoke them so that they can initiate a relationship, or simply ask them out to dance. But that is not the right approach ladies!! You need to remember that you are worth so much, that a man died for you more than 2000 years ago! God loves you and He gave you a beautiful body to take care of and save it for the man who will be your husband, and who you will choose to wake up every morning next to. Only your husband will "unveil your body" every night of your life in the sacrament of Marriage. Next time to get ready on a Friday or Saturday night, dress to impress God with your beauty!
