Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they should live, not to be slanders or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God. Titus 2:3-5
Not many would notice what is different about my Wiggles tonight. But for me there are big changes. Tonight is the first time she is allowed to go out in public wearing makeup.
In our house we made the rule that you had to be 16 years old before makeup became a part of your wardrobe. She is not 16 until later this month but we made an exception for tonight.
Tonight is the annual fundraiser for the Pregnancy Centre so we permitted her to wear makeup to the Banquet.
We teach our girls to love their future husbands. To be subject to what their husbands would find pure. We desire for our girls to wait to become grown up until they are ready to submit to a husband.
Don't get me wrong, both our girls are opinionated and are not afraid to let others know what they are thinking. But what they do now will effect their marriages so self-control is a priority in their growth and maturity. We are proud of our girls putting their husbands first while they are developing relationships with others.
One day I know their husbands will thank them and love them all the more because of their choices.
