Humility in Modesty

This week's devotional that God has put on my heart was May 2nd's, about modesty. I keep thinking about it, and how much I struggle with fighting the urge to draw attention to myself. Not just with clothing, but in other areas like academic accomplishment. It can be so easy to make everything about yourself, but that only leads to a toxic cycle of comparison and emptiness. This devo was a great reminder to me that it's not how others see me that matters, but how others see Christ through me.

  1. It is SO easy to make everything about yourself! But there is no freedom there! I feel like I'm often being reminded of this and renewed by confession and turning outward to worship Christ. Thanks for the reminder, Elise!
