The question is whether these "convictions" really come from God. Does God put a conviction against cutting hair into one lady's heart (because, um, that's her "stumbling block"? ) but not another lady's heart? Maybe I'm missing something. (And you say "Well, duh!" )

As far as dress, I think we do those out of reverence for how we feel, and do as a sacrifice to God.
Think God is pleased with such "sacrifice"? Would it make Him happy if I sacrificed wearing shorts, say? Or maybe I should give up chocolate? Does it make Him happy if we do things we don't like, or give up things we like? Again, I'm probably missing something.
