Not to beat a dead horse or anything, but I just found this video that I thought I'd post to go along with my prior post.
I saw this video several months ago, while JoElla and I were teaching the "His Girl" Bible study to the girls in our Sunday school class at church. If I could have figured out an easy way to show the girls this video, I would have loved it.
1 Peter 3:3-4 "Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, 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."
I'm not against braided hair, make-up, jewelry, or nice clothes. I just don't feel like I HAVE to wear those things. (My sweet husband tells me I'm beautiful without having anything painted on my face. And I know His Royal Fiscal-ness appreciates that I'm not tied to having the latest fads in my closet.)
God knows that I have a long way to go before I consider myself to have a "gentle and quiet spirit." (And trust me when I say that Bruce would really enjoy a little bit more of that in the house!)
I'd just rather spend my time chasing that goal, than trying to measure up to the end product in the above video.
It's actually harder to attain. I'll be working on it probably for a lifetime.
