[Discoveries] 04-16-08 A woman's beauty -- 1 Peter 3:4

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

*My 14 year old son, Hans, is looking for a way to raise some money to 
go on a missions trip this summer. He is good at creating something 
beautiful from photos and text. If you would like one of these 
devotionals (or any other text) combined with a photo (a person, a 
sunset, flowers, whatever) and made into a poster or plaque or card, 
Hans would be happy to do so in exchange for a contribution toward his 
trip. Contact me http://www.dwightclough.com/contact.php and we'll work 
out the details.*



/*Instead, [a woman's beauty] should be that of your inner self, the 
unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in 
God's sight. -- 1 Peter 3:4*/

What does God value? There is something inside you that God values. And 
this beauty inside you is not pocket change to God. It is treasure.

My daughters sometimes ask me, "Daddy, do you think I'm pretty?" Every 
time they do, I am touched by their vulnerability and by the trust they 
put in me. I feel overwhelmed. And, yes, I look them in the eyes and I 
tell them, "You are beautiful."

God is calling His daughters to Himself. He has a word for you, woman of 
God. He wants you to know about the great worth inside you, about the 
beauty He sees in you. This is not a message I can deliver for Him, but 
I can and do invite you to go to Him to receive His life-changing word 
for you.

Be encouraged!
