Praying from 1 Corinthians 11:6. Themes: Modesty, Gender Roles

Dear God,

We pray for all women who may feel exposed and vulnerable without proper covering. May they find comfort and protection in your loving embrace. Help us to understand the importance of modesty and respect for our bodies, and to honor your commandments. We ask for your guidance and wisdom as we navigate the complexities of this world, and for the strength to stand firm in our faith. May we always remember that our true beauty comes from within, and that we are all equal in your eyes. Amen.

Verse: For if a woman is not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or be shaved, let her be covered.
1 Corinthians 11:6

This is a Command. The verse commands women to cover their heads, and if they do not, they should have their hair cut off.
