I think that there is a little bit of Heidi in each of us, we look in the mirror and pick at all of our defects and flaws. In our heart of hearts, we wish God had made us differently. How do we find happiness? The culture says- “build your self-esteem”, “learn to love yourself”. The Bible says, stop looking at yourself at all-
“Set your mind on things above, where Christ is” (Colossians 3:1)
“We have been bought with a price, so glorify God with your body” (1 Cor 6:19-21)
When Jesus is in His rightful place, all the other planets of makeup, beauty, fashion and exercise fall into proper orbit.
“Charm is deceitful, and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.” -Prov 31:30
I have been thinking about this topic and just wrote a post on image on my blog. It's an important topic for women to find their footing on, I think.
