Beleza
O espelho costuma cobrar um preço alto de quem vive tentando alcançar um padrão que muda o tempo todo. A sociedade gasta tempo e dinheiro correndo atrás de uma imagem que se desfaz com os anos, gerando desgaste e frustração para quem se mede por aparências.
Deus olha para um lugar bem diferente quando avalia o valor de alguém. A Escritura mostra que o Criador valoriza o que nasce no coração e permanece, moldando uma identidade que o tempo não consegue apagar e que traz paz verdadeira para a alma.
A verdadeira beleza vem de dentro. A Bíblia ensina que o encanto é enganoso e a formosura é vã, mas a mulher que teme ao Senhor — essa sim merece louvor.
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.(Proverbs 31:30)
Whose adorning let it not be the outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on apparel; but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.(1 Peter 3:3,4)
