Friends, I can't tell you how shocked I am. Earlier today I was visiting with my Uncle Phil and Aunt Meg in Des Moines. It seemed like things were going well, I spent the morning witnessing to them and then we took time out for a hearty lunch - and I do mean hearty! I stuffed myself full of different meats, enjoying sandwiches and delicious soup, but I took in a little too much and had to lay down for a nap.
When I woke up, I discovered to my horror that Uncle Phil had given me a pearl necklace while I slept! It was right there, on my ch*st! I was so revolted that he would do such a thing that I couldn't bring myself to touch it, so I grabbed a nearby towel and brushed it off as quickly as I could!
After I calmed down, I grabbed my Bible and explained why he shouldn't be going around giving women pearl necklaces! Not even his wife!
1Timothy 2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array
No pearl necklaces, no pearl earrings, no pearl ANYTHING!
Uncle Phil apologized and asked me not to tell anyone about his breach of morality, that he just thought I would like it and that he thought a pearl necklace would look good on me, but after talking to my husband, Mr. Whitford, we thought this would be a great witnessing tale to share with the world. God bless you all!
