Overseer Shante Myers' Testimony
Your book speaks volumes and is a true blessing to the body of Christ. This book is upbeat, up to date and relevant…. Not to mention very funny! I loved your family stories! I found myself taking notes through out my reading. It was like the more I read; the more the Holy Spirit down loaded how I should apply the principles to my own life. While reading the book on one particular night, the Holy Spirit instructed me to go to this website I had never been on. It was here where he showed me where to go to buy slips that were fashionable and at the same time added 2 to 3 inches to my hemline, proving that modesty is not making us dull, but allows the true essence of our beauty to shine. Dressing immodestly says look at me…look at my flesh. It puts more worth on outward appearances. Dressing modestly says, “I’m so bold and confident in what God put on the inside of me, I don’t ever have to put myself on display!”
I, myself am 32 years old, and I absolutely love fashion… especially vintage 50’s… This was an era that spoke modesty and sophistication. While reading the chapter on modesty in this book, it helped to rekindle one of my heart's desire to want to buy patterns to sew and design my own clothes.
Ma Shirley, your book is packed with wisdom and godly counsel. Every time I picked up the book, I felt like I had set down at the knee of my very own grandmother. This book oozes with Truth, Love and Wisdom… which makes the value of this book priceless!
