Just a quick post to explain why at one occasion you may visit my blog and read my posts, and then visit back at another time, and see a certain post has disappeared.
Well if you have ever noticed that and wondered why. Well here is the explanation for that.
Sometimes I have written something in haste, and later when I have had more time to think, I realize maybe I should not have wrote that. Maybe it was not very edifying or encouraging, or something. So then I take that post off.
If I would spend more time in prayer and thought before posting, the chance of that happening would be less I know. Think and pray!
Well there you have it. You now know the mystery for disappearing posts.
In Him,

True beauty
I try my hardest not to go to the yahoo's home or main page, but when I switch from my one e-mail account to the next it brings me to the yahoo's main page against my will anyway.
And there I ended up having to see all the news clips of the celebrities , movie stars and such.
The head lines that go with their pictures almost always go something like this.
~ She awed the audience with this dress (which is very low cut, tight, and most likely a slit all the way up the side)
~ got the looks in this short skirt
~ she still looks great in this bikini at 60!
~ caught every one's attention at the award night with this out-fit ( which is tight and short)
~ stunned the audience in this daring out-fit! ( very low-cut bodice, with cut-outs here and there)
~ she turns heads in this hot new dress
You get the picture.
Skimpy, sexy, and fashionable. It is all about the outward appearance. That is the world's beauty it seems. And this is short-lived, and does not bring true joy or lasting happiness at all.
That is certainly not what I want for my girls. I want my girls to have God's beauty. I want them to know what true beauty is all about.
True beauty comes from the inside out.
It comes from knowing, loving, and obeying God.
It comes form a life completely consumed with God.
And from a changed life in Christ.
A life filled with joy, peace, happiness, contentment, and fulfillment that only comes from serving and walking with God.
True beauty comes from humbleness, modesty, politeness, kindness, patience, godliness, honesty, being sincere, ect.. ect...
You get the picture. True and lasting beauty comes only from God, and living a Christ like life.
And this is what I want for my girls. I want them to know they do not need the latest fashions, or dress skimpy to be beautiful. And they do not need to catch all the guys attention. Only one good Christian guy that will fall head over heals in love with them, and be their loving husband till death do part them is all they need.
May your life be filled to the brim with God's beauty too!
In Him,
Mae
