Vanity

Well I'm back. A little tired but I'm here. Wouldn't you know it the one day I can sleep in, first i can't fall asleep and stay asleep then when i wake up at 4:30 i can't get back to sleep because the rain is pinging off my a.c. However i eventually fall asleep but wake up at 8:30 and can't get back to sleep, but whatever.

Well time for the daily devotional, well i dunno if you would call it that. It's more like i pick a subject and talk about it and give verses from the bible about it, and i have no idea what to call it so I'm going to call it devotionals.

Today's topic is vanity. Vanity plays a huge part in life today. There's make-up ads everywhere, there's tons of different magazines dealing with fashion, and there is a constant pressure on women to look like the super skinny, perfectly pretty, celebrity women. It really doesn't help that most men(not all) when looking for only beauty in women. Not caring about what they really are like. As I said before not all men are like this, but as some are and the pressure is on, most women sometimes forget the old cliche. "It's what's on the inside that counts," and it really is. The bible says this in Proverbs 31:30

"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised."

So know this, beauty is fleeting, it will NOT last forever, however if you fear the LORD and do as he says, that will last forever.
