Proverbs 31 True Beauty: Honoring God Above All
Story:
There was a time when I believed my value depended on how others perceived me—my looks, achievements, or charm. Proverbs 31:30 reminds us that charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman (or man) who fears the Lord is to be praised.
A re-born identity in Christ is not about outward charm or fleeting beauty, but about a heart that honors God. The world may praise appearance, but God values a heart surrendered to Him. When we fear the Lord, we become people of substance, character, and eternal worth.
