Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. - Hebrews 10:24.
Spring has finally sprung which means that the weather will inevitably warm up. As awesome as it is to bring out the spring clothing and, eventually summer shorts, us Christian women need to remember how the way we dress can tempt our brothers in Christ. Our jobs is to help and encourage our brothers in Christ from being led astray by our beauty and charm. All guys struggle with this. Even the most Godly. They all struggle with their eyes. Most girls are innocently unaware of the difficulty a guy has in remaining pure when looking at a girl who is dressed immodestly. Please be aware of how easily your actions and glances can stir up lust in a guy’s mind. I know this seems somewhat unfair since summer can be really hot and the best way to fight the heat is to wear short shorts and a tank top but it’s our job to help keep our brothers strong in Christ. We shouldn’t be a reason for them to fall into temptation but, instead, an encouragement and crutch. It’s true that guys are responsible for maintaining their own self control but you can help by refusing to wear clothes designed to attract attention to your body. Take the responsibility of guarding your brother’s eyes. Even if a guy forces himself not to look, he is very much aware of the presence of a girl who wears clothes that are revealing.
