I really resonated with the “taking the attention off of me” part and “putting the attention back on the Lord”. Because whenever I feel like crazy beautiful, sexy hot, it goes to my head a little, I become proud and addicted to the attention. And it reminds me a little of Satan how he was a beautiful angel, and he wanted all the glory to himself. And that just spoke volumes to me. Because pride comes before a fall. And wow! So true. Get the attention on Jesus. Not me. Yes! 🙌

He didn't fall because he was beautiful though. That's not the real issue. He fall because He took the glory for Himself and the way He was created. If wearing down ( which I suppose judging by Your comment), will make You feel less sexy and hot brings You close to God, then dress down, but in my opinion... That's not where the problem is. Think about it, it's not about what You wear or even how You feel, is about in what reality You are living. If it's in a reality where only God is praised, it doesn't matter what You will wear, or how You will feel, that's why I think we will WALK on a gold streets in heaven and will be surrendered by the most fabulous things. Still... God presents will be bigger then that, so them things will mean nothing. If You in God's presents those things just disappear in my opinion and we don't care about them. Just a thought. I think it's more about God presents nothing else. All else comes next.

Such an interesting perspective - I was raised as an Orthodox Christian (but never baptised) and living in warmer climes I was quite used to wearing short, cute, summery outfits. But in my late 20s I started working at an all-Muslim office. Nobody ever told me I needed to change the way I dressed as everyone there was pretty cool and open-minded about stuff like that. But over the months I worked there, something changed in my own perceptions. I distinctly remember one afternoon when a male client walked in and my 2 coworkers were dressed in pretty maxi dresses and there I was in a short skirt and a little too bold of a cleavage. I remember at that moment, I'd never felt more naked (or ridiculous) in my life. I also noticed that contrary to popular belief, these Muslim women weren't shy, bashful or lacking in confidence beneath all the layers of clothes. They exuded quiet confidence and felt secure in their beauty and femininity without feeling the constant need to flaunt parts of their bodies to convince themselves they have worth. I've long changed jobs since then but that shift in mentality stayed with me. I gradually phased out items like mini-skirts or shorts. I occasionally allow myself more revealing tops (I'm not exactly the busty type) so I feel I can get away with it but I'm very aware of how much skin I show.

Hello Milena! The Lord has definitely put on my heart to be modest. I still wear jeans but make sure my bottom is always covered. And short story I was at the beach with my family and heard a man who was obviously drinking talking about all the woman on the beach and how skimpy there bathing suites were and what he wanted to do to them and how turned on was even though he was a married man!! It made me realize how men do look at us. The Lord gave me a pure example in front of my eyes how important it is to be modest.❤

Commenting as a spiritual follower and not a religious follower, I think this transition also comes from a place of womanhood. We learn our own worth and confidence and we mature through catching attention based on dressing a certain way and knowing that our heart and soul and mind is what is attention grabbing. Leaving the parts of our physical attraction to our spouses and not for all to see. Thank you for sharing this video!

As a Muslim, our main principle is that we aren't objects for everyones' eyes. Our Lord ordered modesty to save us from so much unnecessary grief. Like you said, our husbands can basically see us looking sexy, but not the whole world. Modesty is something that is inward and outward for us. Covering up for us isn't oppression to us, it's just obeying our Lord. And we do it happily and willingly.

Love this!! As a Muslim hijabi, for summer, fabric materials make a huge difference in comfort! Also the looser the clothing is, not only makes it more modest, it also allows for more airflow. My husband was concerned about having a daughter because he was worried she would not be able to do activities and sports and still be modest. I told him I would advocate for her to be able to be included and things while modest.

Hi Katelyn! Absolutely. Prior to coming to Christ, all I wore were crop tops and leggings. It makes me cringe to think I used to pickup my daughter from school dressed like that straight out of the gym! But man, God is SO good and He has been so patient with me in every area of my life, especially my modesty journey!! It didn't happen overnight, but over time, with God's grace, I've been able to OBEY the convictions He's placed in my heart and I've changed my entire wardrobe. I got rid of all my crop tops and I never wear just a sports bra to the gym! I've actually been wearing oversized t-shirts to the gym that cover my butt and I've never felt more COMFORTABLE and beautiful. I want to continue to dress for the LORD and not for the world or men's attention. The thought of that actually makes me sick lol. I have a 7 year old daughter who I want to be an example to on how a Godly woman should dress and what pleases/honors God. :) May the Lord continue to work in and through you, sis! God bless you and your beautiful daughters ❤

I grew up in a church where women wear skirts, and while the bible calls for women to dress as women and men as men, standards have certainly changed since then.

Milena, great video 👏🏼 I grew up in the Pentecostal church, where Modesty was implemented on both men & women at a young age. You’re right, it is a heart problem, because our hearts ARE the problem. These days we’re so focused on our own emotions, instead of what the Holy Spirit is trying to convict us on. Sadly, sometimes as Christians we take the topic of modesty, to judge other Christians. The Lord once gave my mom a dream on Modesty. In her dream the Lord had spoke to her and had told her to go pray for someone, and she had replied to the Lord, “I can’t, I’m wearing pants” and He replied to her “did I ask you what you were wearing? I told you to go pray for her” and my mom had awoken from her dream. HOW POWERFUL! Is our God.. He wants us to reflect HIM, His kingdom. But that not only includes what we wear, but how we act and how we reflect HIM. Beautiful words Milena. ❤️

I am a Christian of a different faith but also value modesty and appreciate you having the courage to speak on this topic. In high school, I dressed modestly out of obedience but it embarrassed me to stand apart from the majority. Sadly, I didn’t feel as pretty or confident at school dances because my dresses covered me. It’s taken me into my 30’s to understand and appreciate the whys of modesty and it’s something I now am proud of rather than embarrassed about. It’s neat to see that others of various faiths and backgrounds feel similarly!

Came here to say this 👏🏻 A lot of males in this era of easily accessible brutal and violent online exploitation of women, have been groomed to see us as objects and have developed addiction and these objectifying lenses. Women have suffered for so long due to taking accountability for others actions and it shouldn’t be that way. It is their responsibility to undo that and see us as humans deserving of respect. I LOVE however that she immediately mentioned that ultimately modesty refers to the heart as well. Because it’s true! However we want our clothing choices to reflect who we are and what we believe in. She made a lot of good points especially about still having the option to meet somewhere in between with fashion and femininity and then also remembering that not being “part” of the world is okay and we should strive for that. How much falls under this or not can be subjective though.

The main stream media is all about taking off your clothes and unfortunately young girls look up to that and it’s easy to be influenced by it that’s why it’s hard to be modest in this time and age. I think modesty is so beautiful and feminine. You’re so young and mature and guiding young girls to a good path. God have really blessed you with knowledge and wisdom.

I want to thank you for making this video - for multiple reasons. One, because as an expectant mom I truly enjoy your content and look up to you as an example of what a godly wife/mother should be, and being on a modesty journey myself, I really appreciate that you are talking about the difficulty of the journey. And I'm also glad that you brought up the different body types, because I started my modesty journey (and mine consists of only skirts/dresses) at a time when I happened to be gaining a significant amount of weight, and so it's been such a struggle to find modest clothes that fit my changing body type (ESPECIALLY now that I'm pregnant). It's like, they don't make clothes for women that aren't either sexual or frumpy. It's so hard to find an in-between, and it's also hard when you have a particular style that you like but can't find affordable pieces that will fit you in a modest way. I live in NY and the winters can get quite cold here too, so I understand your hesitancy with converting to only skirts/dresses - it's a struggle, sis! What's saved me is wearing fleece tights but I know sometimes that's not enough. To each their own journey. Anyhow, thank you for being brave enough to talk about this topic even though you didn't want to - I look forward to seeing how you grow! Also, if you ever want to do a "modest look-book," I'd totally love that, because I love your fashion sense and would love to get inspiration!

Just an opinion on modesty being difficult to style fashionably. If you look into classic style, the pieces that never go out of fashion, most classic pieces are quite modest and effortlessly beautiful. For me, when I have felt my personal style to be too revealing, it's always when I have tried to follow a trend. Trends are just a momentary flash in the pan, and then they move on. I've found that tailoring my closet to more classic items has made modesty easy, and my shopping as a whole a lot more conscious, and intentional.

Milena ! I’ve been a follower since before your wedding it’s so crazy to see how you have grown immensely. Not just outwardly I honestly see the most change in you through your heart and words .You are a true testament to being a woman of god ! I have seen over the years how you fully stepped into your role as a wife and mother all while allowing the lord to lead you . And you’re a continuous inspiration to me and I’m sure to plenty of other mothers who are walking through life in similar circumstances Thank you for honoring the lord and being an example for other believers!!

When I first got saved I was instantly convicted of my wardrobe. I ended up getting rid of 90% of my clothes because I was, for lack of a better word, a “hoochie mama” lol. I was in longer t-shirts and loose pants for awhile but I’m a fashionista and missed dressing feminine so I’m currently trying to find my “modest style” if you will. I pulled together some really cute holiday outfits but it’s definitely a journey. I have to say, for someone who has spent most of her life in virtually no clothes, it feels good to keep my body to myself. ❤

Girl, I'm right there with you! I'm so glad to hear that. God is REAL and He really does change us from the inside out when we put our faith in Jesus and trust in Him! I used to dress provocatively, I was always going out, drinking, having casual sex with men but when I came to know Christ and made Him my Lord & Savior -- He changed ME from the inside out. I no longer drink, I have been celibate for 3 years, and I have changed the way I dress completely.. I no longer dress for men's attention/approval, but I dress to bring glory to God & I choose to dress in a way that honors/pleases Him!! God bless you, sister. May the Lord continue to work in and through you. ❤

She’s really happy.”. And it just brought tears to my eyes that she noticed the joy that God has given you. Then later on she says “Her house looks really happy, too.” And she noticed how you are with the kids and how joyful the kids are. Again, brought tears to my eyes. That’s how I want to be and that’s how I want our home to be. Joyful in the Lord. Anyway, just wanted to let you know.

the ending has me confused. The part about women being modest takes away feeling threatened by eachother, because at a baseline, isn't jealousy in the first place a sin??? so whether someone isn't being "modest" it's not on THEM, it's on YOU to not feel jealous or "threatened?"

I am all for the modesty. As I became a mom I noticed that less and less my focus was on being "seen" and more on being comfortable and adapting to my role as a mom. "Does this show my butt if I'm picking up my kids" "will someone completely see down my shift if I have to bend over". To dress that way was no longer practical but it was also no longer comfortable. I felt I was constantly trying to cover myself up and not expose too much yet I'd wear these things 🤦♀️ duhh wear clothes that cover more and make me feel comfortable in my own skin.

This video put a smile on my face! I’ve also changed how I present myself to the world. I ran competitively in college. Our uniforms and practice clothes attracted attention to our bodies, but it was normal and I didn’t think anything of it. After college, I realized how detrimental my clothes could be in my walk with Christ. I wear skirts/dresses at least to the knee (even found cute workout ones that are great for loungewear!), and God also deals with me in regard to hair, jewelry, and makeup. There’s so much in His Word if we just look for it and pray on it, just as you said!

Wow. I really felt this. I have decided not to long ago, to start dressing more “modestly”. I made the comment out loud to my husband, and our oldest daughter who is 12 asked me what that meant. I of course was stumbling on my words to say, and didn’t know exactly how to put it besides having more respect for myself, what I’m showing of my body and to whom… but this, this video has made some more valid points and I think I will have sit down and show her some of these scriptures now and talk more into depth with it. As her becoming a young lady, I believe it’s very important for her to hear this and have a better understanding. Then as her two younger sisters get older, they will know as well. I try to instill it always, for them all to learn, but I must set the example in my household. Thank you ❤ God knew exactly what I needed to hear.

When I was convicted of modesty, I went through the same steps you're going through and I'm still working through my thoughts on certain types of clothes.

Thank you for listening to the voice of God telling you to make this video 🙌🏽 I recently found myself falling into the thoughts of “well if all these God fearing Christian’s that I follow (and even personally know) don’t dress very modestly, then why should I? Like why am I going out of my way to find “long shirts” and decent clothing when it seems like no one else is?” So this video spoke to me in the sense that I need to not get discouraged. Everyone goes and grows in their walk with the Lord differently, and don’t get convicted of the same things, or just don’t plain know about certain things because it hasn’t been revealed to them yet. I know I have a LOT of learning and growing to do myself. So don’t get discouraged & do not judge. Stand firm in what you believe in and are convicted on. That is what I feel God spoke to me through you in this video so thank you Milena. I can’t wait to watch you on this journey, I’m sure it will help me with mine as well. much love ❤️

Praise the Lord that He is continually renewing our hearts and minds and aligning them with His own! Thank you for sharing, I’m praying that others would see the heart of this for what it is and not shame or hate, but rather a conviction and an encouragement. I was discussing this very thing with my fiancé last night. It boils down to the idea that we dress to please and honor someone, always. Ourselves, our spouses, others around us or the world, but even as Christians, we pay little mind because we don’t think it matters to the Lord. And yet as you mention it is “pleasing to the Lord”. We must exhort one another, encourage one another, pray for one another, and hold each other accountable in this area. If all the glory belongs to Christ, then we should be a mere reflection of that directing back on Him or showing the glory of Him outward to others around us. I exhort you brothers and sisters, dress and live in a way that is honoring to our Father, in a way that would be pleasing to Him.

Honestly, modesty is a touchy topic with me as well. I feel like for so long it's been drilled in females heads that we need to be modest for the sake of the "male gaze" and it was always so off putting to me. But I love how you touched on how 1)men can be immodest 2) modesty is far beyond what you wear and 3) taking into account body shapes and how certain women are shamed for the body that God gave them! It's a personal journey with that person and the Lord. Great job with this video :)

Mia we have to be honest here if we walk in the average church you already have around 9 out of 10 men dressing modest. It's a lot more common for women to dress inmodest so that's why the focus is on them mostly. Both need to be modest but it's simply just more of a women's issue. Out of curiosity what's touchy about it to you? With scripture saying don't be a stumblingblock Luke 17:1-4, Paul in 1 Corinthians 8:13 said even though he can eat meat he won't if it causes a weaker brother to stumble and much more. It's pretty straightforward in scripture and the biggest struggle I think is people just not wanting to lay down their own desires and selflessly serve like we're called to do.

I get it but on the other hand I think women shouldn't 'hide' just because men can't keep their thoughts together. I don't think you should dress too revealingly - of course not. don't understand me wrong but when a guy passes by with huge muscles and a tight shirt I could have 'dirty' thoughts too but I CHOOSE NOT TO. men should learn that too... see us as a woman (as a human being) and not as a s** object...
