I want these verses to be an encouragement to all of the women who are asking God to teach them how to be a woman of God. Please share any other verses that may be on your heart...

[B]1Timothy 2:9- I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearl s or expensive clothes, 10 but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.11 A woman[a] should learn in quietness and full submission. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. 15 But women[c] will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.

Proverbs 31:30-Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.

1Peter 3:3-Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. 4 Rather, 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. 5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves. They submitted themselves to their own husbands, 6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.

i thought of starting a thread to inquire into folks thoughts on "head covering " not to do with the topic as a stand alone subject, but as a study in regard to the immediate heart attitude and response when the topic is raised.

i mind not what a woman of God does , if she is doing what ever she does in loving obedience to the Lord Jesus, then may God bless her all the more .

but i am interested in dealing with the attitude that seems to prevail so much these days ..not an attitude of , well maybe if it pleases the lord then i will happily do it , but rather .. an almost instant balking against it and then listing so many reasons.. where is loving obedience for the word of God - why do we of this modern age question everything and reason it into insignificance with so many words .

your posts intrigue me - so i thought id ask you instead:D
