I recently read something about true beauty. Beauty that doesn't have to do with looks. Beauty that is deep and permanent. Beauty that, when you're around it, you know it and you are blessed.
What matters is not your outer appearance—the styling of your hair, the jewelry you wear, the cut of your clothes—but your inner disposition. Cultivate inner beauty, the gentle, gracious kind that God delights in. (1 Peter 3:3-4 The Message)
I have seen beautiful women before. You know, the ones that without fail look perfect. But I've also been around women who are really beautiful. Deeply. You just want to be around them because they make you feel good about yourself. They are kind. Funny without trying. And just nice. They put others first and because of that, they shine. My mom is like that.
I think that's the kind of woman I want to be.
There's a pretty good chance you ARE like that.
ReplyDeleteThanks Hanna!
ReplyDeleteI really needed that today. :)
me too. this was really good. you know, when someone believes all those things about you (that you're nice, kind, funny without trying, stuff like that), then you just blossom and radiate beauty.
