DEVOTIONAL PODCAST “In the Little Things” - #8 “What Does beautiful Look Like”
Welcome to this week’s “In the Little things” Podcast. This life is a very fragile thing because many times we look for approval and support in all the wrong places. We can look at magazines, social media, peers, even television and start to compare ourselves to them. In this weeks podcast we will be looking at how 'beauty' is perceived and the lens that matters in evaluating our own beauty. Thank you for joining us this week... as we have several stories to share about what is truly beautiful....
How does the dictionary define “Beautiful”?
Having qualities that delight or appeal to the senses and often the mind. Excellent; wonderful. Used to express approval or delight.
Scripture: When we look at Scripture… These are the ones that come to mind..
(Genesis 1:27) “Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.
(Psalm 139:13-16) “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in.”
(Ecclesiastes 3:11)“He hath made everything beautiful in His time. Beauty."
Challenge/ Application: Whenever you find yourself feeling less beautiful than someone else, stop and remember WHO is the judge of all REAL beauty. In Who's eyes does beauty come from and truly matter. Remember that God does not make mistakes. He is not a god of confusion, doubts or lies. If He declares YOU are worthy to be created wonderfully and perfectly… ...than YOU ARE HIS BEAUTY, HIS TREASURE and VALUABLE! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
Application: God is our great Revealer and Truth!. He wants to know that you were created with the purpose of delighting Him! He delights in the beauty within you and with time (as you mature in the walk with God) others around you will have their eyes open to see your inner and outer beauty! [Daniel 2:19-23]
Devotional Insight: God knows your beauty and worth. For He created you and equipped you exactly how you could best represent His beauty to those around you. Every fiber of your being… He knit together before the foundations of the earth. Nothing and no one can diminish your beauty, value, or worth, from it's original design and purpose… TO DELIGHT GOD! So when the liar comes to you and says “Look that one is more beautiful than you.” Rebuke and declare the Truth of the Creator Loving God that created you in HIS BEAUTY and PERFECTION! Not our own… I have a good friend Gail… When you call her and she cannot answer… the message on her phone is “Make up can cover your blemishes but true beauty is only found in Christ Jesus!” God within us and through us is our Beauty!
