“Do not let your adorning be external -
the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry,
or the clothing you wear -

but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart
with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit,
which in God’s sight is very precious.”

(1 Peter 3:3-4)

Peter might not been have made such a great Ad Exec for Revlon or Maybelline however. The verse trashes that old saying that: “beauty” is only skin deep.

Oh yea… I suppose a reprieve as well for you ladies; regarding that little incident in the Garden way back when. ; )

Grace and peace be with you.

great verses! i must always keep this in mind when seeing young ladies…..much of their beauty is vain unless it is the beauty of a soul transformed by grace.
