A women of beauty is a women who is not striving to become beautiful or worthy or enough. She knows in her quiet center where God dwells, that he finds her beautiful, has deemed her worthy, and in him, she is enough.
A women of true beauty is a women who in the depths of her soul is at rest, trusting God, because she has come to know him worthy of her trust. She excludes a sense of calm, a sense of rest, and invites those around her to rest as well. She speaks comfort; she knows that we live in a world of war, that we have a vicious enemy, and our journey is through a broken world. But she also knows that because of God all is well, that all will be well.
-John and Stasi Eldredge from the book- Captivating
