THE INNER BEAUTY  

 A lady was applying face cream when her little girl asked ; what's that you're  putting on mum?  'Moisturizer", she replied, " the sales lady said it would make me beautiful". with simplicity and honesty only children have, she replied,"Mum i don't think it's working."

       There's nothing wrong in looking good, but there is much more to you than your clothes and your hair styles. plus, you cango broke fixing up the outside, because,  "what mother nature gives, father time takes away." BEAUTY is not on us,we carry beauty within us.

        It is a big mistake to focus on the outside and fail to appreciate the inner qualities God has given you .Solomon said, " beauty is vain " ( prov.31;30). when god made you, he did not just decorate the outside, he gave you inner beauty, the gentle, gracious kind  that he delights in. however, because peter also talked about "fancy hair,gold jewellery and fine clothes"a few well-intention people have used that to create a legalistic standard by which to measure and judge others.

       Does  the bible  teach us to dress appropriately? Absolutely, yes. Paul writes "I want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, appropriate for women who profess to worship God." (1 Tim 2;9-10) , But when you focus on the wrong area, you get wrong results.

      "man looks at the outward appearence, but the lord looks at the heart,"(1 SAM 16-7).

      Finally,don't allow  what you see on TV or in the mirror to define your worth. instead, work to develop the kind of inner beauty God commands.

     May God help us.
