What Makes A Woman Beautiful

“... even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.” ―1 Peter 3:4

Recently a proud mother was showing my wife and I some graduation pictures of her lovely daughter. She was saying photographer didn’t need to use make-up on her daughter for the photo-shoot. I mentioned that inner beauty doesn’t need make-up.

Perhaps you are a lady who struggles with the way you look? Let me assure you that beauty is NOT found at a cosmetics counter, on a dress rack, or in a Botox injection. Those things are corruptible, and what’s in Vogue today is out of fashion twelve months from now. The only thing that will make you more beautiful, day after day and year after year, is what you nurture within yourself–serenity. “The ornament of a meek and a quiet spirit” is worth far more than even the most expensive jewel you can wear around your neck.

Stand in front of the mirror today. Imagine Jesus by your side, and ask Him to create in you a gentle and quiet spirit of love.
