Proverbs 31:30


Just a reminder today for all us gals that beauty is not what it appears on the outside--and it is fleeting. "Charm is deceptive" because it seems like your life will be perfect once you have "achieved" what the world calls beauty. But it won't be. It becomes a constant battle to please those around you--to weigh what you think others want you to weigh, or wear your hair in a way that would please others-- instead of the One who made you. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" (Proverbs 9:10). Fear (also known as "honor", "reverence", understanding who God really IS) the Lord and ask Him to make your heart beautiful--to fill it with His thoughts, His desires, His love. A heart like that is something that He longs to give us. From it, true beauty of a woman that Loves Jesus with every fiber of her being will spring forth! :) And that is something to praise the Lord for!
