What kind of Woman I Want to Be

June 13 2005
"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."1 Peter 3:3-4

"Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all. Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised."
Proverbs 31: 29-30

I want to be that kind of a woman described in those two verses. I was reading Song of Songs and I was just thinking how the Shulamite woman did have a strong passion for her true love but she knew that she didn't need a guy to be happy, and that's what attracted her mate to her. She says "Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you....do not arouse or awaken love untill it so desires." Song of Songs 2:7. She knew that having love for God first is what it's really all about, and then God will bless you with a truly wonderful earthly romance. If we focus on becoming more christlike then our inner beauty will outshine everything. Just a thought for the day, lol.
Hope you all have a blest day!
