We are so bombarded by societies images of what the outside of our temples should look like ! Our Father is totally and completely aware of our true beauty. This applies to men as well as women. "Beauty IS ONLY skin deep!It It is ALSO FLEETING! Beauty for ashes! I am interested in your open,enlightening and true responses. Thank you!

your eyes look kind, probably a bit sad and lonely, and you are perfect for at least one thing, praying for those who feel sad, and there's a person of concern that I always have in mind, like sunlight77

and, if you ask someone from Feng Suei, they'd probably analyze and say "your eye brows are wide open" therefore, you are very forgiving and generous

your nose, indicate rich, wealth, you will have a lot of money
your cheek, means you have authority
your chin, means, you like to travel a lot

... your forehead, intelligent

wait, what am I doing? what am I dabbling? urgh, ...
we are not astrologist, nor superstition,

but anyone, let your light shine before others (Matthew 5:5)

now that's better

yeah, a big oops on dabbling in other people's beliefs

but anyway, people will think you bring good luck and blessings, anyway

Isaiah 61:1
anointed here,
I declare you "anointed"


to comfort all who mourn,
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.

😉Are you a facial expert, have a very good gift of discernment, or is Jesus just telling on me? You are definitely on to keep my eye on and my face closed. Nail on the head doesnt even begin to affirm how well you have seen me. I am all those things with one exception....rich in this worlds goods. I am however rich in all He has.🙏

Any woman with a beautiful inside will have that beauty transcend to the outside as well.

Isaiah 61:1-3
1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;


2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;


3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.


I never noticed how well this fits with Matthew 5 before.

Matthew 5:1-6
1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
