Looking Inside of You


By looking at this beautiful baby, you are able to see purity on her face. Even if you spend a whole day looking at her you will never feel tired because she looks so cute, so innocent and very simple with no make-up to enhance her beauty. Try to imagine this baby with some lipstick or mascara or powder or fake eyelash. Will she really need them? I know that your answer is NO! But, where does this beauty come from? It comes from inner simplicity.
When a person is truly transformed by the Holy Spirit, this change makes her to become pure and simple which reflects in her exterior. She has become more confident to spread her beauty wherever she goes, exactly like this baby. Many people spend money with special treatments, plastic surgeries, cosmetics and other elements trying to look young or to enhance their beauty. Is it wrong? Of course not, everyone has the right to be the way he/she likes but if one invests only on the his/her appearance and s/he does nothing to change his/her inside, then all the efforts and investment will be as good as nothing. However, if one holds grudges, is envious, has a lot of hate or has anxiety this is what will be reflected externally. Therefore, it is important to ask the Holy Spirit to transform you so you can possess that natural beauty. You won't depend on a red, brown, grey or any colored lipstick to make you look beautiful. Remember, babies don't put on any make up and they are all beautiful.
