Today one of my youth girls challenged me to not wear make-up with her this week. She wanted to do this to show the true beauty God made her to be. Now that is beautiful, a young girl so in tune with God that she wants to be who he made her to be. The only beauty our father sees does not come from our outward appearance. God sees what is on the inside, and that is truly what makes you beautiful.
1 Samuel 16:7 "But the Lord said to Samuel, "Don't judge by his appearance or height for I have rejected him. The LORD doesn't make decisions the way you do! People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at a person's thoughts and intentions."
We all can feel imperfect at times, but the next time you start to compare the way you look to someone else or look in the mirror walk away. Stop compulsive exercising and dieting to lose weight, shut the magazines and turn off the TV that says your only pretty if you look a certain way. Shut your eyes and listen. More precious than any fairy tale is this truth. Your Prince has spoken and he is so in love with you!
Psalm 45:11 "The king is enthralled by your beauty." Let your true beauty show, let God make you totally beautiful!
