I waste my time in any imaginations of being a beauty to behold; I guess I am not in danger of breaking any mirrors or cameras as I pose but am not a portrait painter’s dream for glory either. Photographers will not be placing candid snapshots of me in their portfolio in hopes of advancement and passersby likely give me a second glance. Poor pitiful Pam.
What is beauty? Is it face-paint or skin deep? “For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him (Isaiah 53:2 NRS).” How could I be so blind? I do not gaze upon beauty in a mirror reflection or see it revealed on a model’s runway; beauty is soul deep.

The real beauty of a person is down deep within his/her heart, which should reflect the glory of the Lord.

Maybe I need to learn to stop squinting, allow God to open my eyes and heart to His word and perfect will for my life…

You’ve revealed an eternal truth, but it’s all too easy to see with the eyes than with the soul. Could we call that progressive vision? 🙂
