Let your Beauty come from the Inside
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. 1 Peter 3:3-4, NIV When we are too exposed to social media, we tend to compare our beauty according to what we see. We follow the standards of this world and fail to appreciate the things that matter most in life.
