inner BEAUTY

“The greatest treasures are those invisible to the eye but found by the heart.”

When I think of the word beauty, I think of the rolling hills of blooming flowers, the power of the Holy Spirit, the little acts of kindness that can make someone’s day, big smiles, laughter, little children running around at the park, a new born baby, the birds that sing to you in the morning, forgiveness,  and love…

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”

So next time you go outside, take time to smell the flowers or lay under the stars with a friend. Beauty is everywhere... it really is.

 “For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.”

You ARE beautiful. God made us in his own image and although you have probably heard this sooo soo many times, our true beauty comes from within. Our beauty comes from the heart and our beauty comes from those random acts of kindness or those little smiles from across the room.  You are specially made by God, therefore...

you are beautiful inside and out.

Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious.

 1 peter 3: 3-4

Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Proverbs 31:30

So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. 2 Corinthians 4:16

You are Beautiful by Mercy me.

The days will come when you don't have the strength
When all you hear is you're not worth anything
Wondering if you ever could be loved
And if they truly saw your heart they'd see too much

You're beautiful
You are made so much more than all of this
You're beautiful
You are treasured, You are sacred, You are His
You're beautiful

And praying that you have the heart to find
Cause you are more than what is hurting you tonight
For all the lies you've held inside so long
And they are nothing in the shadow of the cross

You’re beautiful

Before you ever took a breath
Long before the world began
Of all the wonders He possessed
There was one more precious
Of all the earth and skys above
You're the one He madly loves
Enough to death

You're beautiful
In His eyes

You were meant for so much more than all of this
You are treasured, You are sacred, You are His
You're beautiful
You're meant for so much more than all of this
You are treasured, You are sacred, You are His

“The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our very existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to life.”
