Praying that my four daughters will read this and heed these words.

And I want women to get in there with the men in humility before God, not primping before a mirror or chasing the latest fashions but doing something beautiful for God and becoming beautiful doing it. 

What matters is not your outer appearance—the styling of your hair, the jewelry you wear, the cut of your clothes—  but your inner disposition. Cultivate inner beauty, the gentle, gracious kind that God delights in.  The holy women of old were beautiful before God that way, and were good, loyal wives to their husbands.  Sarah, for instance, taking care of Abraham, would address him as “my dear husband.” You’ll be true daughters of Sarah if you do the same, unanxious and unintimidated.
