Beauty from God

​by Tini Tadeo-Castillo

​A woman's true beauty is never measured by the flawless skin she has, nor the gorgeous hairstyle she sports or the desirable body she works hard for. While they are all sources of confidence, we must make sure that we are more than just those. More than charm and outer beauty, me must strive to live purposefully, living out what God has intended when He created us--to bring Him glory.
Most of us think it is hard to live and breathe within God's center, but the truth is it can never be more easy--if only we stop struggling, stop resisting, yielding control and letting God be God in our lives. It is placing each minute of our life in His more than able hands. Allowing God to turn the warmth of His light on us enhances the innate beauty we already have within. Bathe in His presence and watch how He will turn you into gold! He will let your eyes shine with His love, your lips smile and laugh with His joy and your tongue speaking His truth, your feet following Christ's footsteps and your hands doing His mighty work.
