A rich an very beauty lady, which also was a Christian, was asked to give a recipe of the beauty preparation she used.
Everyone admired her appearance.
This is the recipe she gave:
You can not get this recipe on pharmacist, and nevertheless on a beauty parlour.
You can only get this at ONE PLACE: At the CROSS where JESUS was nailed and died for our sins.
The human nature will always look at the outside, BUT GOD look at the HEART.
1 Sam.16:6-7
6 And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said,
Surely the LORD'S anointed [is] before him.
7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height
of his stature; because I have refused him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man
seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the
heart.
Prov.31:30-31
30 Favour [is] deceitful, and beauty [is] vain: [but] a woman [that] feareth the
LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the
gates.
1 Pet.3:1-7
1 Likewise, ye wives, [be] in subjection to your own husbands;
that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the
conversation of the wives;
2 While they behold your chaste conversation [coupled] with fear.
3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward [adorning] of plaiting the hair, and
of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
4 But [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,
[even the ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of
great price.
5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God,
adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long
as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with [them] according to knowledge, giving honour
unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the
grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.

I trust in: 2 Cor.12:9:
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made
perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities,
that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
