Way too often we get caught up in doing what the world says and not what Jesus says. We think that we must dress a certain way, act a certain way, date a certain person, and be all “perfect.” Notice I put perfect in quotes? We’re not perfect.
Us girls spend WAY too much time in front of the mirror trying to “perfect” our look so we can attract BOYS. The MAN that God has for you won’t care what you look like with or without makeup. God created you in the most beautiful way for a beautiful man (yes, guys can be beautiful). You are a treasure, sis! You don’t need to be skinny as a rail and have the perfect hair and makeup because when you wake up next to your future husband with stank breath and every hair out of place, all of that won’t matter.
That’s what the world says, not Jesus.
Psalm 45:11 says, “Let the King be enthralled by your beauty; honor Him, for He is your Lord.
Remember you are BEAUTIFUL just the way you are, don’t try to please the World, please the Lord in everything you do.
Boys, I know y’all probably put on extra cologne and fix your hair just right for your Instagram pictures too. You know you want to impress us girls. (insert winky face here) PLEASE don’t think that you have to have extra cologne and perfect hair to impress girls because when you wake up beside your future wife with stank breath and every hair out of place, it won’t matter. That’s what the world says, not Jesus.
Ephesians 5:31 says, “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”
So, trying to look like what the world says you should does not matter.
Please The Lord, Not the World, friends. You’ll be glad you did!
