Cleavage, a Tight Skirt and High Heel Shoes - Where Has Modesty Gone in Corporate Worship?

Sunday, February 27, 2011 · 0 comments

It was a gorgeous Sunday morning, all seemed to go just fine in the Sunday school and even the start of the morning assistance seem to put the saints in the spirit of unity and worship. I remember as a young man how worship services had a extra meaning to my mother. I can remember how the habitancy were reflective of their week and thankful to God for His many blessings.

Attending Church had a extra meaning while those years, it was quite dissimilar from the time we perceive in the corporate worship services today. Modesty and humility were the hallmark of Godly men and women at one time. At the risk of stirring up a hornets nest (and I'm not calling anything a hornet) I realize that some of my readers may not agree nor appreciate this post in particular.There was a time when the only distractions in the church was a snore (indicating that someone fell asleep), the occasional popping of gum (inadvertently while chewing fast) or children laughing, talking or even crying. Those days are yet with us along with some added distractions and things implemented, to help move things along on Sunday mornings. Since our children are attending children's church, the adults won't dare fall asleep while the sermon lest they are made the town of attention while the sermon when the speaker singles them out.

Wonder Shoes

Alas! We have a new distraction in the church, well its not beyond doubt new, no one speaks out against it in fear of offending someone. Over the years it's been excepted as the norm while worship services and its common institution in many churches, what is it? Cleavage, a tight Skirt and High Heel shoes. Many Pastors won't preach about it (...I wonder why). Many of the women whom wear this (sometimes inappropriate ) attire will reason, debate and construe it away all in the name of Christ and Christianity. "God blessed me with it" many will say, others might say "If it bothers you, don't look"

Try street witnessing with cleavage, a tight skirt or jeans for that matter and the high heels. Most women realize and know that if they are going out to do ministry; inspect to the poor, the broken-hearted and the homeless, they will dress modest and proper for the situation. Those having street or security ministries understand the importance of how you present yourself and being empathetic to those you priest to. Going to the homeless security in your expensive clothing, wearing your best perfume is plainly gaudy.

What happens when we come together in worship? Why do we present ourselves to the non believer one way and come together for worship another. If one can have a sense of compassion and thoughtfulness when doing such ministry as to not wear those things that will make, the one being witnesses to feel left out, feel lowly, poor, lacking and without. The fact that God knows your heart and your intentions is true, how can we as believers be so dismissive about our true intentions in what we put on? When women and our young girls, attend worship services and stand before God (and the rest of the congregation) with much cleavage on display and dresses in tight skirts and high heel shoes attention is drwan to self and your best assets (pun intended); the wearer know this.

Modesty seems to be old fashion and many are extremely offended at the hint of anything not approving. Well, "God looks at my heart and not what I wear" you say. This is only partly true (anything partly true is misleading and anything misleading is deceptive and anything deceptive is not the truth) How's that for political correctness? Think about this, if we are true with ourselves, as we dress in the morning and you take a look in the mirror at how you look and you say, Wow! I'm seeing real sexy" and my hips and thighs are to die for! Then it's about you, pleasing you, its about you getting the looks and stares as you walk down the aisle to your seat (fashionably late), not the spirit of God and how you might cause the one seeing to stumble.

Little is left to the imagination of our young men in the church and our young daughters get the impression, this is what they need to do to attract the boys in the church. Our young girls see nothing wrong with proclaiming Christianity and dressing "sexy and hot" (I guess that's the term). When our young men in the church see the women in the church, in their attire that flatters their hips and thighs, the young girls can plainly see how the men and the boys write back to cleavage and tight skirt. In the minds of young girls, this is justified because older Christian women do it. Many will say, "wow, you being judgemental". Would other man in the church be wrong for telling other man his tight revealing jeans and mesh shirt is inappropriate?

I like what Paul states in Romain 14:13-21:

13: Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way. 14: As one who is in the Lord Jesus, I am fully convinced that no food is unclean in itself. But if anything regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean. 15: If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died. 16: Do not allow what you think good to be spoken of as evil. 17: For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, 18: because anything who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and beloved by men.

19: Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification. 20: Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble. 21: It is best not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother to fall.

The catch-all is verse 21: It is best not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother to fall.

If your defense is "the one seeing needs to pray more and grow up spiritually", then you have just declared your strength in the Lord thus your accountability according to scripture is to bear the frailness of the weak (the one looking) [Romans 15:1] and knowing that your brother or sister is overtaken in a fault, ye (that's you) which are spiritual restore such a one in the spirit of meekness (Galatians 6:1).

Many churches have become the place where men (men that don't know the Lord nor do they have any intention in knowing Him) come into the church seeing for a woman and women seeing for a man. When the church becomes such a place to attract a mate, men and women will lower their standards by their abandonment of modest apparel and they will hide behind their freedom in Christ Jesus to construe the cleavage, tight skirts and high heel shoes.

Boys Flip Flops - A Growing Trend Among Teenagers

Thursday, February 24, 2011 · 0 comments

It is my personal notice and first hand knowledge that most girls and boys today have more pairs of flip flops than any other shoes. After all, I wonder what is so special about this footwear that everyone nowadays seems to be in love with them. I think one main intuit is that these shoes are most comfortable and easy to walk in as correlate to any other shoe styles that exists or ever existed. There are many habitancy who are also spreading some warnings against wearing flip flops out and its dangers, but everyone seems to have who-cares sort of an attitude towards this.

I read that some students in the Uk researched on these shoes and reached to a closing that these shoes could be very effective in toning the butts, calves, legs and thighs. Studies and experiments also show that the users of these shoes have great chances of minimizing the stress in legs, feet and the back. Thus, these comfortable pairs of shoes that possess so many benefits are not only trendy and chic but also very useful for us and our health.

Wonder Shoes

Girls' and boys' flip flops are available in many different colors, sizes, styles and designs. You can legitimately purchase them at uncostly rates. They were legitimately designed to have the 'barefoot technology'. These shoes can help improve the feet, because after some time of using them they make the foot muscles work harder. People, who suffer from the disease known as bunion should ordinarily wear them as they decrease the stress on the toe joint which in return leads to the annulment of bunion. It is also claimed by its manufacturers that these sandals growth muscle activation from 10% to 12%.

How often are these used?

People love wearing flip flop sandals to gyms where they can legitimately work out with this comfortable pair of sandals.

It is very tasteless to wear them to beach while taking sunbath and indulging in water activities. They are also known as beach sandals and Hawaii sandals by some of the brands. You can wear them to parks during summers to expose your feet to the sun and the air, since ended shoes are not for summers.

The High Heel Can Work Wonders

Wednesday, February 23, 2011 · 0 comments

If you have ever been to Chicago, you know it is one of the greatest walking cities in this country. As I walk around the city, I cannot help but notice the collection of intelligent shoes that women are wearing; from designer gym shoes to six-inch heels. What I find most intelligent is the collection of high-heeled shoes out this season- everything from the popular stiletto to the revival of the 70's platform high heel shoe. As I soak my feet from walking around the city for three days on 5 inch heels I wonder why we do it-what makes the heel so amazing that I, and hundreds of thousands of women, buy heels and spend a fortune on them? (A pair of women's shoes can range from to 0 plus depending on the manufacturer and the materials used.) There is truly a love/hate relationship with the high heel; women love them for manufacture them feel sexy, sophisticated, and confidant, and hate them for the pain that they cause from extended use and an improper fit. According to my sister, a veteran of the shoe industry, it is all about the pitch and the arch when it comes to comfort in wearing a high heel.

Shoes are one of the oldest inventions of our ancestors. They were first created from a piece of hide or plaited grass in order to safe feet from sharp rocks and rugged terrain. Shoes are referred to in the Bible and depictions of high heels dating back to 4000 Bc have been found on the walls of Egyptian temples and tombs. The wedding of the Italian born Catherine de Medici to the Duke of Orleans in 1533 in France brought high heels into vogue for women. This fashion forward royal insisted on having heels made for her in Florence prior to the wedding. The vertically-challenged bride created the rage in Paris for the new "It" shoe. Renaissance man (artist and inventor) Leonardo da Vinci is rumored to be one of the inventors of high heel shoes.

Wonder Shoes

Fashion has all the time trumped comfort when it comes to women's shoes. The high heel can work wonders for a woman's figure, far more than buying a new bra or dropping ten pounds. A great heel can make a woman's leg look long and shapely, lift the tush, and make your hips sway. It categorically can be a confidence boost. Who doesn't want to look sexy and feel inescapable by adding a fashion accessory to their wardrobe?

The High Heel Can Work Wonders

Lea Goldman, features editor for Marie Claire Magazine, was recently reported saying; she's utterly convinced that high heels can empower women at work. She said they help women look and feel inescapable and self-assured, and they also help them stand out from the pack.

Because women's shoes fill many roles, from comfort and function to fashion and personal style, some new brands are merging and older ones are reinventing themselves in order to help women that have issues with their feet find fashion and comfort all in one shoe. From the runway to 5th Ave and Main Street, veteran shoe designers and foot care professionals are combining the luxury and style that Catherine de Medici wore in 1533 with invisible comfort technology in order to create cushioned and supportive shoes for the women that love wearing a 5 inch heel.

How to Bond With Your Teenager

Tuesday, February 22, 2011 · 0 comments

You wonder sometimes when your sweet charming dinky cherub grew into the headstrong distinctive personality he or she is today. It seems like just yesterday you were tying shoes, buttoning jackets and reading bedtime stories. Now your baby is speaking a whole dissimilar language and wants to spend most of his time with his friends. All is not lost; you still have a occasion to be a part of your teenager's life. In fact, you will both be best off for it. Spending time together one on one is an foremost part of connecting with your adolescent child.

Time together can be found in the simplest of tasks. Teenagers can be asked to help mom or dad with chores such as dinner, car maintenance, cleaning out the garage, etc; conversations often start over a shared task. Sending them off to do the task alone will get the job done, but joining them in the work will not only get it done faster, it will also furnish that occasion for bonding.

Wonder Shoes

Yard work is an additional one great together activity, but bonding takes place best when yard tasks are shared. It's hard to have a meaningful conversation over the sound of the lawn mower and weed eater. Those tasks are important, certainly, but time spent working together weeding a flower bed or raking leaves will be much more sufficient in the bonding process.

How to Bond With Your Teenager

While spending time together, even if you are working while you do it, be sure to introduce an element of fun. Don't be afraid to get playful and try to relax if things get a dinky messy. You might have a dinky extra cleanup after dinner or you may have to rake the leaves again, but the bonding that comes from playful interaction is priceless.

Time spent together watching a movie or playing a video game is also nice. There is well something shared when you get together and share an experience. However, it does not allow for the ability of conversation that will encourage them to talk about what is going on in their lives. You will bond on some level while playfully harassing each other about a game, but conversations will be centered on the fast animated operation of the movie or video game.

Getting surface to play a game of real basketball trumps virtual basketball on so many dissimilar levels. It's so to easy to put a transported basketball hoop in your driveway. There is time in the middle of game talk for conversations about real life. Heading surface with a real basketball and to shoot a few hoops provides the operation that can get conversations started, but the pace is more conducive to meaningful interactions.

Another way to bond with your teenager is to plan an occasional one on one outing together. This will not only furnish lots of opportunities for bonding, but will also help both of you relax and rejuvenate away from the responsibilities and pressures of daily life. Take a day and go fishing, ride the bike trails, attend a race or whatever activities both of you enjoy.

The adolescent years are relatively short, but it is a time of great growth. During these years there is great inherent for success or mistakes, some of which can have chronic implications for best or worse. You will be best able to guide your son or daughter through this age if you normally spend meaningful time together.
