What do we do to make ourselves look and smell good?
Grecian formula/hair color, acrylic nails, deodorant, mouth wash, perfume/cologne, suntan, expensive watches, diamonds and gold, braces/teeth whitener, designer jeans, makeup, haircut/shave, diets, facials, radial keratotomy/lasik, new car, nice house, manicured lawn, and the list goes on and on.
Yes, on the outside, but what about the inside?
Love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
We spend so much time making ourselves look fine on the outside! But we forget to spend time working on the inside. Working on the things that will produce and bolster these fruits will automatically make us look good on the outside.
1 Samuel 16:7 “. . . The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
Giving God the glory,
Jo
