Beauty Prescription #1: Develop a personal, real relationship with God and let Him transform you
You know that our emotions are revealed in our faces and eyes. Did you know that our characters are also revealed in our faces and eyes? Our faces and eyes reveal sadness, anger, love, confusion, anxiety, joy, peace, hatred, happiness, contentment, pride, envy, humility, and so many other things. And the bad ones don't do much for our appearance! Now do you suppose these things have any connection with our spiritual life? Of course they do!
"The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance . . ."” (Galations 5:22, 23).
While the Spirit of God is doing good things to us on the inside, those good things are serving as a free (hey, we're doing it anyway!) beauty treatment that doesn't cause cancer (even in California), won't harm the environment, and didn't require animal testing in its creation. It's applied from the inside out so there is no mess (usually), it has no physical substance so it takes absolutely no storage space, and it can be applied anytime, anywhere, while doing almost anything else.
I'd like to see the "“beauty industry"” try to beat that!

so very true and it even works unto old age I must tell you. It doesn't completely keep the wrinkles away (but who says those are bad anyway) but it does make a different in how many and how they effect your face. it makes pleasent old men and sweet old woman who don't look anywhere close to their real age.
That's true! I have been thinking about that lately and I may post on it. I just don't want to overdo the beauty stuff--I need some variety, you know.
Thanks for commenting on everything. I appreciate that. Feedback is very helpful to me! :-)
