Inner beauty comes from solidly trusting God and His position of authority. There are times when those in authority over us may make a mistake or misjudgement. Joyfully, we know that God supersedes all. Our job is to trust and obey Almighty God. His job is to work for good to draw those in authority to Him. He speaks “precious” to those with a gentle and quiet spirit who cast their cares on Him (not giving way to fear)! -Teresa
I Peter 3:3-6 (NLT)
3 “Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. 4 You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God. 5 This is how the holy women of old made themselves beautiful. They put their trust in God and accepted the authority of their husbands. 6 For instance, Sarah obeyed her husband, Abraham, and called him her master. You are her daughters when you do what is right without fear of what your husbands might do.”
