“Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.”

You are beautiful just the way you are. I am not speaking of outward beauty but when you were born God gave you a beautiful spirit. You still have it. Don’t change for the worlds approval or for acceptance. Be your self. God loves you, and so will others as soon as they get to know the real you!

I used to think I was different and strange because I like classical music, good literature, and nature walks better than boys and clothes shopping. But my mom read me the verse above and told me that the “hidden person of of the heart (your heart) ” is precious to God. He loves me the way I am and someday hopefully some one special will love me just for who I am too. For now, I am praying and seeking God’s Will. I can confidently trust Him and rely on Him for my happiness. He knows my every desire and wish in the same way He know yours! Won’t you trust Him? Will you not put your full and devoted confidence in Him? You are special.
