Maybe don't let your beauty be all you care about or use it to manipulate or anything like that. But do whatever you want. If you wear them too... flashy-like... don't cuse I kinda have something against that. Make sure it reflects you and you're the reason you're wearing earrings, not anyone else. They can be cute and awesome and the coolest thing ever but I had this one girl cuse she has no idea how to wear them and keeps wearing them the wrong way (like with the wrong motive). I can tell cuse they're not her. I don't claim to know her but I know that her earrings aren't her. I think it'd be cool to get my left ear pierced sometime. One of the main reasons is cuse it used to be a custom in the old testament to have your ear pierced if you were a slave or something. And I'm a slave to Jesus! I would probably get some people to think weird things about me but hey, my relationship is with GOD not them =P Anyways, sorry about rambling and being late and stuff. Jesus loves you! =)Tunafishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622783406675315243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1267335498878400036.post-75845473457015934922010-07-25T21:44:29.566-04:002010-07-25T21:44:29.566-04:00I'm glad I could be of some assistance, though...I'm glad I could be of some assistance, though I would like to add one last bit:<br /><br />You say Jesus erased all the laws but two. But yet He Himself said:<br /><br />"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished." -Matthew 5:17-18<br /><br />Now I know what I say can come across as legalism--I hear that often. And you are right; it is impossible to follow the law, and Jesus did make possible the removal of sin. But even under the new covenant, it is not possible to gain salvation through any amount of adherence. And yet many believe that one must obey the rules IN ORDER to love God, when rather one loves God and as a result does what He says.<br /><br />Basically, my underlying belief here is that when God made man He called it very good. I don't believe rules lead to God or God to rules, but that as a bride preparing for her husband-to-be, we ought to try to please Him.<br /><br />Be Blessed<br />~Araken~Arakenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02159085503154184232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1267335498878400036.post-13412194601644314072010-07-24T22:02:52.436-04:002010-07-24T22:02:52.436-04:00Excellent post :)Excellent post :)Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14791763524324073873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1267335498878400036.post-63923965387924164632010-07-24T21:19:04.241-04:002010-07-24T21:19:04.241-04:00I agree with you, except for one point.

I don't like it just because it's not very practical (for me).
