Also known as Jim Halpert from The Office.
On our flight home from Mexico on Tuesday, my reading material consisted of People Magazine.
I came across a mini article on John (we're totally on a first name basis) and my excitement about the magazine and this actor rose to a new level.
They were asking him simple questions and when asked about his home town, this is what he said.
"I miss the East Coast," says the Massachusetts native. "When the girls are bundled up, it's extremely se*y."
WHEN THEY ARE BUNDLED UP! Not when they're in skimpy swim suits or about to loose all of their business out of a shirt, but when they are bundled up.
I'm not to sure how many of you are smitten over him, but I am. I mean, really y'all, to hear that Jim from the office thinks that a girl is more attractive bundled up, means a lot. Most men, especially in the Hollywood business, would never say that.
Girls, you and I can totally learn from this. Most times we think that the only to get a guy is to dress immodestly, I beg to differ. If we want a boy that respects us and treats us how we should be treated, than we don't want the ones that want us for our body. That is totally a trap! And, if we do dress like that, we aren't doing our brothers in Christ a favor, we are only making them stumble and sin.

If you feel the tug on your heart, or your palms are sweating because you've fallen into this trap, I would do a heart check! I've had to do a heart check a few times myself because I so used to be the one to wear short shorts and spaghetti straps and thought all was well. Little did I know (however, consciously I did know), I wasn't doing anyone a favor.
I just pray that we have young godly men who rise up and think the same thing and that the young godly girls would listen and heed the wise advice and wait for a man that respects them and their bodies.
So, as if we didn't love Jim enough, don't you think he's just precious?! I do.
Do you want to be attractive? Then bundle up, sweet girls! ;)

Wow.. I love what you have said here! It seems really easy to forget all that since:
1)were around the skimpy clothes ALL the time, and are very pressured by it
2)we hear about being modest so much that its easy to tune out when we hear about it.
3)Satan wants us to think that it is okay and not a big deal!
4)Its easy to forget Romans 14:13 and just think it is the guys problem to deal with, and we should be able to wear whatever we want.
Anyways, Thanks for the reminder!
