Proverbs 31:22


 Proverbs 31:22 She makes bed coverings for herself; her clothing is fine linen and purple. ESV

The KJV translates, “bed coverings” to “tapestry”. Either way, I'm zoning in on Woman 31's choice in clothing here. She is a well dressed woman. And likely she has made some of her clothing or purchased it in a frugal manner as we know she is smart with her money. Just because her clothing is “fine” does not mean she's dumped the bank on her wardrobe.

I think we can agree that women seeking godliness shouldn't look or dress like ungodly women. We should not only be dressing modestly, but also neatly. Dressing trashy or unkept doesn't present a very shiny mirror to reflect Christ from. In all actuality we should be dressing like royalty. We are daughters of the King of Kings. When was the last time you saw a respectable princess in daisy dukes and barely there tank? I've yet to see photos of any royal family in their fleecy pj's out in public.


Let's make conscience decisions as we dress and prepare to present ourselves each day to be a reflection of our Father GOD. We are His representation of his Kingdom to each and every person we meet. What are we presenting as GOD's children?
