Cultivate Your INNER Beauty

"What matters's is NOT your outer appearance, the styling of your hair, the jewelry you wear, the cut of your clothes but you inner disposition! CULTIVATE YOUR INNER BEAUTY, the gentle, gracious kind that GOD delights in... {1Peter 3:3-5}

CULTIVATE: "to prepare and work on, to improve, to develop"

INNER: "more intimate, private or secret, not obvious, hidden"

DISPOSITION: "state of mind"

..."The Lord does not look at the things man (humans) looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart" 1Samuel 16:7

LADIES: Only 10% of our beauty is visible to the eye, 90% of our REAL beauty is hidden on the inside! We as women should be concerned with our inner beauty. STOP trying to please the world and the people in this world with how we look. It makes us feel better to please the world, but that's feeding an insecurity! Become secure within yourself, rest in your satisfaction with yourself, grow & spend time with yourself :) Your confidence will soon build which will cultivate your inner beauty and will be recognized on the outside!

Picture This: Our body is a temple right? So imagine seeing a temple that is BEAUTIFUL on the outside. Everything about it has attracted you to it. Beautiful windows, golden doors and perfectly aligned bricks (lol)...BUT as you walk in, it's a MESS on the inside! Dirt & mud everywhere, horrible smell, mold and dust are attached to everything...etc. I believe no matter how good it looked on the outside, you still would not deal with it! Now Switch that around...beautiful Inside but ugly outside...Hmmm...As long as that inside is Nice, clean & cozy...You would stay! Think about it...

"I AM FEARFULLY & WONDERFULLY MADE..." Psalms 139:14

I AM FULL OF BEAUTY = "Beauty-Full"
I AM FULL OF POWER = "Power-Full"
I AM FULL OF WONDER = "Wonder-Full"
I AM PERFECT FOR MY PURPOSE IN LIFE :)
