A week and a half ago, the big girls and I and a bunch of mom friends and their daughters went to a program called Secret Keepers LIVE! The program promotes beauty for young girls being defined by modesty and that true beauty comes from God.
In this day and age where 7 year olds look like 17 year olds, it was refreshing to hear from God's word about what is truly beautiful in a girl/women. And none of it really has to do with the outside. Yes, we should be neat and clean and properly dressed but that is not what defines true beauty. God, in Scripture calls each one of us beautiful. And He would know because He created each and everyone of us.
We got tips on dressing stylish yet modest. And she challenged each young girl there to spend more time in God's word then she does looking in the mirror. I thought that was cool!!
She explained, through a parable, that each girl is a Princess in the Kingdom of God.
Anyway, it was just nice to hear from another source that beauty is truly from the inside and that modesty is the way to go . . .
