Appearances

It appears we have an obsession about our appearance and our appearances. Passing a mirror? Did you check yourself out? How about the reflection in the store window? Were you able to see yourself clearly? Happy with your appearance?

Appearance not only relates to your look, but also with your location. Are you where you want to be? Now the double whammy...Are you concerned about how you look as it relates to where you are? Do I appear confused?

Made in the image of God, we are designed to be like Him...like Jesus. It comes true when it not only is our appearance, it is our reality.

1 Peter 3:3-4 (MSG)
3 What matters is not your outer appearance—the styling of your hair, the jewelry you wear, the cut of your clothes—
4 but your inner disposition. Cultivate inner beauty, the gentle, gracious kind that God delights in.

I like this post. :) Have you ever looked into a reflection of a window and realized that there was someone on the other side staring at you as you fix you hair or checked yourself out. I have done that once or twice.. It's pretty funny.
hope all is going well in Australia.
Praying for you!

J- The location relates to making an appearance. To this I draw the same conclusion.

A- We miss you and trust you're well.
