True Beauty

"There is a growing aversion in our culture to neatness, orderliness, and attractiveness in dress and physical appearance. I sometimes find myself wanting to say to Christian women: “Do you not know who you are? God made you a woman. Accept His gift. Don’t be afraid to be feminine and to add physical and spiritual loveliness to the setting where He has placed you. You are a child of God. You are part of the bride of Christ. You belong to the King—you are royalty. Dress and conduct yourself in a way that reflects your high and holy calling. God has called you out of the worlds system—don’t let the world press you into its mold. Don’t think, dress, or act like the world; inwardly and outwardly. let others see the difference He makes in your life.
We as Christian women should seek to reflect the beauty, order, excellence, and grace of God through both our outward and inner person."
