Redefine: BeaYOUtiful

 

This is particularly for my sisters! #Ladies... I feel for y'all. I know its a burden sometimes, too tough to bear. Battling with what the world says is "beautiful", while also fighting, trying to be "beayoutiful", and waring in your hearts to know exactly what type of "beautiful" men are actually attracted to. Who's definition do you buy? Either way, it seems like these scams always end up bankrupting you and leaving some of you ladies broke, and victimized. They have you spending ALL your money on the media's artificial definition of beauty, costing you all your time on that boys ever changing definition of beauty, and wasting all your emotions on your 2nd rate definition of beauty. So, I guess, because the economy is down-turning, we want to put a budget on beauty. Well, I am here to tell you what God says beautiful is. He is not asking anything from you, however, He is trying to invest in a stock in your life that will never lose value. True beauty can't be purchased, it is a free gift!

When I first met my girlfriend (Kamaria)- before seeing her in person, I saw her on facebook. First thought was oh, she is very attractive, but no more than just another pretty face. I honestly paid her no attention & she will tell you so. BUT, when I met her in person, *heart racing as I type* Oh My goodness!!! The Most Beautiful Woman I have EVER MET! Every time I see her it feels like the first time. Seriously, she shines with an aura that is divine. She walks with an angelic gracefulness, exudes purity, & is clothed with a virtuousness that captivates not just my eyes, but my heart, my mind, and My Spirit! To me she is more than gorgeous but she is GLORIOUS! Everything in me Lit Up!!! It wasn't her physical beauty that drew me per se, but her heart radiated like a moon-lit evening. True beauty is truly a breathtaking sight!

The sad thing about this is that many men don't know inner beauty when they see it. Many women focus so much on the outer appearance that they forget that they are a spirit and have a body (like washing the outside of the cup but the inside is dirty). The world portrays these images and ideologies of what beauty is, while completely ignoring God and His truth! God created this world to be appealing, and beautiful, it's a "representation" of His character, His glory, and His beauty. Physicality is important, but it's not the Primary thing.
True beauty is not external, it's eternal, so dress up your internal.
God will bring you someone who will appreciate your inner beauty, because it is precious to Him. He will give you someone who will take care of it and admire it for what it is!

We have to understand that what you bait, is what you attract. Why are you surprised you attract dogs if all you show is meat and bones? Why are you worried about men always looking at your breast and thighs when you running 'round like a chicken head! If you want men to respect you, you first have to demand it by respecting yourself. Especially for women who claim to be daughters and children of God. If you know your father [or better yet, pastor] would not let you walk out the house like that, what makes you think God would let you step out into the world like that?

Men, who run after new booty instead of true beauty will end up hating themselves for it, when they are stuck with bitter, contentious, sensual, greedy, nagging, gossiping, jealous, envious, impure women. (sorry *shrug*)
Beauty fades, hair grays, skin soon sags, abs turns to bags, hips eventually fold, and big butts get old.
Because true beauty is spiritual, it's never finished, it never fails, and it never falters -- it lasts forever.

How could you not appreciate who you are? How could you not thank God for Who He has made you?
Each and every one of you are uniquely formed! YOU are too beautiful to be like anyone else!!! Will you disrespect God by telling Him you don't like His work? Will you spit in His face by adding & taking away from His art, as if He didn't know what He was doing to begin with? Will you devalue and deface His property with tattoos, bulimic diets, sensuality and sexual immorality, and letting the world give you a make over? Will you refuse not to  look into His mirror (The Bible, James 1v23) to see your "spiritual" blemishes, spots and wrinkles?
If we got our approval from man, they might say we were okay, but if we were to ask God "how do we look?" I'm pretty sure He would say to some of us "fat, frail, ferocious, and just tacky!". A gentle, modest, loving character gives a light to the face that cannot be duplicated by the best cosmetics. A carefully groomed and well-decorated exterior is artificial and cold, like a barbie-doll unless inner beauty is present"
BE YOU!!!..tiful!!!
GRACE & PEACE! LOVE YALL!!!
BELOW ARE SOME SCRIPTURES & A VIDEO:

1 Peter 3:3 

Don't be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.

1 Timothy 2:9 

And I want women to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent and appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes. For women who claim to be devoted to God should make themselves attractive by the good things they do.

Proverbs 31:30

Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the LORD will be greatly praised

Psalms 139:14

I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.

1 Samuel 16:7
The LORD doesn't see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
