2Sa 14:25 “But in all Israel there was none to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty…”
Nothing is said of Absalom's wisdom and piety. All that’s said of him is, that he was very handsome. A poor commendation for a man that had nothing else in him valuable. We should have a desire and intention to possess a beauty that is worth pursuing, worth fighting for, a beauty that is core to who we truly are in Christ Jesus. We want beauty that can be seen; beauty that can be felt; beauty that affects others. May we intently seek a beauty of holiness, and the adorning of a meek and quiet spirit! Only those who fear God are truly beautiful in His sight.
The beauty of man is found in his reflection of Jesus, not in the eyes of man… HSAY
