“A vulgar woman is like an item on sale, exposing all for anyone to see, touch and try on. Thrown on top of boxes. Everyone picks up, tries on and throws down after. Cheap and without any protection. Her customers aren’t special either. They’re looking for the best offer.” Bishop Macedo

When we talk about a vulgar woman, what immediately comes to mind is a scandalous woman dressing provocatively, however, vulgarism is much more than that… see below some synonyms of this word:

•Banal- With no originality

•Common- Of little value

•Ordinary- Mediocre; that does go beyond common level
•Trivial- known by all

This means that a woman can even dress discretely but she can still be vulgar due to her behavior. When she is easily influenced by fashion, crowds, by the circumstances, she loses her originality and becomes like everyone else. A woman that isn’t worth much doesn’t stand out from the crowd.

When we find a piece of clothing on every corner, in the market – what do we conclude about its value? When no difference is made in this world, in other words, you’re a daughter just like every other daughter, a wife just like every other wife, a student just like any other student – you’re just like everyone else and also vulgar.

This week’s task is to firstly answer the following questions:

1.How do you dress? Would you consider yourself a discrete woman or do you like to wear clothes that call attention to your body?
2.How do you behave at home? Do you do what others (wives, daughters, mothers, sisters, friends) do or do you try to make a difference?
3.Which culture do you follow? Your own or every other woman’s in your society?
4.What value do you seek the most? Your own or one that comes from what you do and what you have ?
5.Do you influence or are you influenced?

When answering these questions to yourself, you will know if you have been vulgar or not. Your second task for the week will be for you to do something that makes a difference to other people too. Post something from the second task, on our page www.facebook.com/godllywood.

    Very True Mrs Cristiane, i am reading this and am reminded of how important it is to take good care of myself. thanks for reminding us that the way we dress either state a good or bad statement and that beauty from the outside doesn’t represent the inner beauty. The way we dress and present ourselves should be in partnership,and not to be easily influenced by Circumstances and etc. Thank you Mrs Cristiane, i am so excited to do the Task. May God bless you, Kisses

    Hello Mrs Cris

  6. Dilma Goncalves says:

    Yes, I was just thinking about this…that our clothes call different kinds of attention as to who we are. And people do judge a book by its cover, sadly but true. So besides being judged from the outside, let’s think of who we are on the inside..are we someone who makes a difference..like the rare pieces of gem? Or just let the “difference opportunity” go right by us…like a majority of the population?

    Thanks Dona Cris, you help us in reflecting of who we are. Thank you!

  12. Blanche keramen says:

    Oh, my, my, how true Mrs, Cris. We think if we do not dress like the woman next door we are outdated or walk and talk like any other so called known woman in church, we are not of God. I really thank you for brining this to my attention that confirms it, that I should be me, and take the fakeness off my face and approach God’s Alter in my own true self image, be real and God’s Spirit can work in my life and use me as His vessel to save souls.
