Quotes
“Feel confident where you are right now.” - Melanie Kendall
“Look good on the journey.” - Melanie Kendall
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. - Proverbs 31:30
And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? - Matthew 6:25
Likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control. - 1 Timothy 2:9a
