Christians: Christian girls more specifically?

I am inspired that you are concerned first and foremost with your faith.

Should the clay say to the potter why have you made me thus? Should the creation question the Creator?. God created you, every little bit about you. Be content with that. The inward beauty of a committed heart and life to Jesus far outweighs any outside beauty. I would say you are being tested by the evil one,concerned about this present world more than you ought to be.If you are not careful ,this will become an obsession and your faith will suffer dearly for it.Our looks are always changing, I don't look like I did 20 years ago and you won't look the same 5 years from now, so why even be bothered by something so temporal?.....Vanity and Pride God hates, so be very very careful about what stock you put into your 'looks'.We are to be a modest people,not puffed up , not decked out in the latest fashions ,but we are called to be separate from the WORLD and that means the mindset of the world that beauty is everything.....................I have heard it said a child with down syndrome is the most loving and affectionate human beings on this earth. I don't see there deformity. , I see a beautiful ,pure loving heart.Shouldn't we as Christians be more concerned about about what is being portrayed from the heart than what is portrayed in the outward appearance?

make yourself pretty in your heart - on the inside. Outward beauty is only skin-deep and it quickly fades. Also know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The terms pretty/ugly are subjective. They are not reliable.

1Pe 3:3 Don't be concerned about the outward beauty that depends on fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes.

1Pe 3:4 You should be known for the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.

1Pe 3:5 That is the way the holy women of old made themselves beautiful.

I know some girls who are pretty on the outside but once they open their mouths you just want to slap the snot out of them and it is every time they speak. I know a man who is married to a pretty wife but is completely miserable because she is a ........ < I'm sure you can figure it out. I am 5 ft 5inches and 120 lbs if that soaking wet and I am considered pretty, my husband is 6 ft and 290 lbs and most people look at us funny when we are in public together but I think he is handsome. Someone out there was created specifically for you and thinks you are the most beautiful woman on earth but most importantly God thinks you are beautiful. Really He is the only one you have to impress in this life and He says you are His princess.

It's a very good question. I think that it's okay wanting to be pretty, as long as you don't want to compete with someone, i.e. want to be prettier than someone. When you look at people, most of their beauty is related to the expression in their face. Hardened people look ugly, no matter how much adornments they wear and peaceful people look beautiful. If you stay in a good social environment, if you don't exploit anybody, nor allow anybody to exploit you, then you will grow up peacefully and you will always be beautiful.

AS a Christian girl, you should just ignore the comment. That's what any nice girl would do, Christian or not. But as a Christian you will know there is more to a person than just looks.

"Charm may be false and prettiness may be vain but the woman that fears Jehovah is the one that procures praise for herself" (Proverbs 31:30)

First of all, congratulations on being more concerned about your faith than with your physical appearance (: To be beautiful, all you need is Christ shining out of you. If nobody loves you unless you're physically beautiful, then they are the ones that need a face lift. Trust me, as long as you and the ones you love know the real you, nothing else matters.

But to answer the question to the way you probably want me to, I don't particularly consider that selfish myself. As long as you don't leave your faith and God in the dust, they can coincide. God bless, enjoy yourself and God.

1 Peter 3:3 - 4

Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.

I'm a Christian and a girl. I think God already knows it's a girl thing. That would be the least of his worries.

Roadblocks to faith are not physical.

Alright, don't listen to these other Christian assfags who say God will do it for you. You have to make the change yourself. Get a new hair style wear make=-up, meet new people etc. Just because your christian doesn't mean "God" will come someday and save you from being ugly. Remember, religion is not the way you will change. you have to make that change yourself.
