"Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. 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."
1 Peter 3:3, 4 NLT • I wish I'd had room on the picture to write out both entire verses but I tried to keep the most important parts anyway;) • These verses are not saying it's wrong to braid your hair or wear makeup (in moderation.. overdone makeup is the worst lol😝) or wear beautiful clothes. I honestly believe that God wants us to care about how we look; to take care of our bodies and our appearance. But what these verses are saying is that our biggest concern should not be the way we look, but instead, the way THINK and the way we ACT. Our inner selves - our inner beauty. I LOVE the way the NLT puts it in verse 4 - "the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God." Your inner beauty is so precious to God! Don't ruin it by prioritizing your outward beauty. While I believe God likes us to look nice, I also believe that He would rather us look horrible on the outside if that's what it take to get our hearts right with Him. Because, after all, man looks on the outside, but God looks on the heart.
