On Friday 14th February during the Valentine our church organized a program for the singles in our district dubbed "why the beautiful women are single".l was honored to share my thoughts on this lovely topic because they know Dr.Love always has something to say when it comes to romantic seminars.l began by asking what the people understand by beauty and surprisingly all the definitions were pointing to physicalities.l explained to the congregation the branches of beauty that make woman completely BEAUTIFUL and l would like to share it here.
First of all let's look at the dictionary meaning of beauty .Oxford dictionary defines beauty as "anything that pleases the sense or the mind", that is to say true beauty transcends physical appearance and it can mean different things to other people.
MORAL BEAUTY
A woman should possess moral beauty.A woman should be kind, caring,having compassionate and empathic attitude towards people and seek perpetual beauty by working on her inner self (good character and pursue purity). The Bible in 1 Peter 3:3-4 warns us that our beauty should not come from outward adornment like braided hair and clothes but from our inner self. A beautiful woman choses her words carefully and exercise high morals conduct.She listen to her man and respect other women.She is virtuous and joins other women to learn morals.
SPIRITUAL BEAUTY
For a woman to be spiritually beautiful,she should be a woman of prayer who will kneel before her creator in times of difficulties . Hannah in 1 Samuel 1:10-18 did not blame the husband or anyone but prayed and God listened. Abigail prayed that God soften the heart of her husband and change him. How many women can be like Abigail who married wealthy but foolish,rude and hateful man and with all these she used her moral and spiritual beauty to save her husband?. She spoke to change the heart of an angry King and pleaded Mercy for her troubled husband. Due to Abigail's moral and spiritual beauty, she became David's wife and played a significance role in the history of Israel.Be so spiritually beautiful that you can gather other women of faith and pray for your household.
DOMESTIC BEAUTY
Statistics has it that Indians have relatively low divorce rate as compared to the western countries. One reason is that Indian men believe that 70% household chores are wife's duty and this keeps their marriages
A woman should know how to organize the house and make it a home.She should put things in place and serve the family.She should keep herself and the house clean and tidy. We believe that where there is a woman there is orderly and this make such women domestically beautiful.
The proverbs 31 woman is multi tasking. She sets her work vigorously and provides for her house.
PHYSICAL BEAUTY
A true man looking to settle down with a woman look beyond this physical beauty.It is attractive, soft,shinning but not lasting.
The skin and body formation will fade as you grow but the your moral, spiritual and domestic beauty last forever.
The complete beautiful women are not single.We look only the physical and neglect the other vital aspect of beauty.So the next time you call a lady beautiful think of her being kind, compassionate, empathic, prayerful, confident, hardworking,caring, decent in speech,peace and what of you.
