True Beauty

As the saying goes, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” My Eye is beholding you and I see beauty that I have made. You are beautiful to Me. Submit to Me and I will create more beauty within you every hour. Beauty grows like Love grows. I will grow your beauty from the inside out. My Eyes are looking at your beauty! 1 Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for God sees not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” 2 Corinthians 4:16 Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. Ephesians 4:24 and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth. Matthew 23:26 You blind Pharisee, first clean the inside of the cup and of the dish, so that the outside of it may become clean also. Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. Colossians 3:10 and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him— 1 Peter 3:4 but let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God.

Avoiding Suffering

Now take another look at suffering. Do not make avoidance of suffering your goal in life. Do not make saving others from suffering your aim. Aim to walk in My footprints. Then We will walk through the blessings of suffering together. Give My Father thanks for His kind gift of suffering. Remember that His ways are not your ways. Psalm 119:75   I know, O Lord, that your decisions are right and that your punishment was right and did me good. Now let your loving-kindness comfort me, just as you promised. Surround me with your tender mercies that I may live. For your law is my delight.
