1 Peter 3:3-4
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 Samuel 16:7
But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
Psalm 149:13
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
What society says about beauty:
If you don't look like a supermodel than you're not good enough.
Looks are everything.
It's better to be gorgeous than smart.
Reflection:
The bible says that inner beauty is better than outer beauty. That it matters more what kind of person you are than what you look like. Ever since I was younger I have struggled with body image and not looking good enough. I thought there was something wrong with me because guys never rushed to date me. But I have learned that surrounding myself with people who love me for me is the best way to live life.
