God's view on fashion


Does God care about the cloths i wear?that's the question many Christians ask them selves.Personally,i think what  Christians wear is not one of the greatest issues of a godly life, but it is very important.  As Western culture has declined, it has abandoned time-honored values and morals, widening the gap between contemporary fashion and appropriate Christian dress. The message the fashion industry communicates is often in direct conflict with Christian values.

What does the Bible say about our appearance? The Bible teaches that God created us and that he knows each of us intimately. It is essential that we learn to accept God's view of us and live with contentment. There will be times when you feel unloved or not good enough because you base your opinion on your outward appearance. Don't let your emotions mislead you. Don't let people's opinions shape your identity in Christ. You are precious in God's eyes. God loves you and he wants you to live in faith and obedience to this will. God is faithful and His love for you endures forever. God has a purpose for you and it is essential that you focus on serving in His kingdom. You can make yourself presentable but focus on developing a godly character. Discover how you can honor God with your life because that's the reason why God created US in HIS image .
Here's a Bible verse about our appearance and identity in Christ.

1 Peter 3:3-4
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.
You can dress ATTRACTIVE without being immodest.
