“Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.”
— Proverbs 31:30 KJV
Reflection on Today's Verse
Think about it—how much of our time, money, and energy do we spend chasing what doesn’t last? Beauty fades. Trends shift. Even charisma can be a smokescreen. But character? That’s the real deal.
This verse isn’t just about women; it’s about what we truly value. The world tells us to chase surface-level things, but God says, “Look deeper.” A person who fears the Lord—who walks in reverence, wisdom, and love for Him—is someone whose worth doesn’t expire.
So, what do we admire in others? What do we cultivate in ourselves? Let’s invest in what lasts. Because at the end of the day, the glow of godliness outshines even the most flawless beauty.
Personal Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for reminding me that true beauty isn’t found in outward appearance but in a heart that honors You. In a world that chases charm and fleeting things, help me to seek what is eternal.
Teach me to fear You—not with dread, but with awe and deep love. Shape my heart to reflect Your wisdom, kindness, and grace. Let my worth be rooted in You, not in the opinions of others or the fading standards of this world.
Lord, help me to admire and pursue what truly matters. Make me a person of character, faith, and steadfast love. May my life be a reflection of Your goodness, and may I find my identity in You alone.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
