HELLO GOD'S PRINCESS!!! [:-)]

I FORWARD TO YOU THIS MESSAGE I RECEIVED this FROM Ate Pau sent thru her LIFEGROUP LEADER -- Nang GEL (during their mentoring time) FOR YOU TO BE AWARE AND BE BLESSED JUST LIKE ME. [:-)] PLEASE READ IT ...

GEL:

just wanna share wd u. i rememberd somebody's sharing on inward and outward purity lastym. and nag ingon sya nga there are instances na images speak knu in a different way. gn example was pics or scenes na ga focus sa lips ka girls/boys, eg: picture, movie, etc. this is a subtle image daw promoting sexual temptation. esp the LIPS. d bla enticing, arousing,tempting scenes on the movies do not really focus on the BIG body organs, but usually sa small organs, like the LIPS?

in egyptian culture, this is equivalent gle knu to our genital organ. i know it sounds yuck.(hehe) but sometimes, pics focusing on the lips myt have a different effect on the opposite sex and vice versa. NOTE: pwd gd na unaware ta ni. like me! namian gd ko magkwa pics before na gaduko and wala mau face, down part lng, including lips. may lain gle na meaning!!

im sharing this to you not to be legalistic but to spur each other towards being above reproach. as shared by one elder in our church.."DO NOT ALLOW WHAT YOU CONSIDER GOOD TO BE SPOKEN OF AS EVIL_Romans 14:16."

Dat means, some pics might be innocently good for us.. wla meaning, wla flirting, wla any hint of pangita attention from others..BUT, myt give a different msg to others, esp the opposite sex. may we take time to check our pics, our disciples, and our hearts. was there any time na we posted a pic because we really wanted others to see us as beautiful, because we feel na they dont see us? or have we posted something na myt appear as tempting to others? can we show it to our pastor w/o feeling ashamed or guilty? again,"DO NOT ALLOW WHAT YOU CONSIDER GOOD TO BE SPOKEN OF AS EVIL_Romans 14:16."

in the same way that we guard our "private organs," let us also guard the images portrayed by our lips. if we need to edit, delete, crop, so be it.

REPLY FROM EEKA:

Amen!! The book that I am currently reading says, PURITY IS NOT HOW FAR YOU CAN GO, BEFORE REACHING THE TOUCH BASE CALLED SEX.but it is about, HOW MUCH YOU CAN SAVE for the right one. I TOTALLY AGREE wd Gel, not because she is my sister but because what she said is true. Darlings, let us preserve even the images of us ( intimate parts of us ) for the right one:)

I dont wanna scare u with this image but one encounter weekend, when a certain participant Got demonized by jezebel, a youth minister saw an image of a woman laughing outside of the session hall wd an evil laugh. Do you know how d woman looked like?

LONG HAIR WD BIG CURLS WITH ONE SIDED BANGS COVERING ONE EYE.
LONG NAILS
RED, DOMINANT LIPS.
and who do you think is the woman? Jezebel.

So let us be careful of the images we portray. We may feel that we just wanna look like rachel mcadams, reese witherspoon or whoever. But behind that is the ancient woman, jezebel.

MODESTY is the best ACCESSORY a proverbs31 woman can ever wear. MODESTY is the best photo proverbs31 woman can ever post.

I am not being legalistic here as well. But prior to responding on this msg, WE ARE ALL DISCIPLES. na think ko na Hindi man ni sha for the sake of legalism, but this is a fact that DISCIPLED WOMAN SHOULD KNOW.its up to u kung panu mo e deal. Basta kay uve been made aware:)...... END........

so thats it... I pray that you learn something. [:-)]
REMEMBER James 1:22
"DO NOT MERELY LISTEN (read)... DO WHAT IT SAYS.

GOD BLESS YOU!

wow!
powerful!

MODESTY is STILL the best ACCESSORY :-)

Proverbs 31

New International Version (NIV)

Proverbs 31:10ff

Epilogue: The Wife of Noble Character

 ^{10 [b]}A wife of noble character who can find?
   She is worth far more than rubies.
¹¹ Her husband has full confidence in her
   and lacks nothing of value.
¹² She brings him good, not harm,
   all the days of her life.
¹³ She selects wool and flax
   and works with eager hands.
¹⁴ She is like the merchant ships,
   bringing her food from afar.
¹⁵ She gets up while it is still night;
   she provides food for her family
   and portions for her female servants.
¹⁶ She considers a field and buys it;
   out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
¹⁷ She sets about her work vigorously;
   her arms are strong for her tasks.
¹⁸ She sees that her trading is profitable,
   and her lamp does not go out at night.
¹⁹ In her hand she holds the distaff
   and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
²⁰ She opens her arms to the poor
   and extends her hands to the needy.
²¹ When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
   for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
²² She makes coverings for her bed;
   she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
²³ Her husband is respected at the city gate,
   where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
²⁴ She makes linen garments and sells them,
   and supplies the merchants with sashes.
²⁵ She is clothed with strength and dignity;
   she can laugh at the days to come.
²⁶ She speaks with wisdom,
   and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
²⁷ She watches over the affairs of her household
   and does not eat the bread of idleness.
²⁸ Her children arise and call her blessed;
   her husband also, and he praises her:
²⁹ “Many women do noble things,
   but you surpass them all.”
³⁰ Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
   but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
³¹ Honor her for all that her hands have done,
   and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
