Beauty is Fleeting

Marry a girl for her godliness not her looks because if you marry a woman with only outer beauty and not inner beauty soon you will be bound to a woman with neither.


Proverbs 31:30 "Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised."


1 Peter 3:3-4 "Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, 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."


1 Timothy 2:9 "I also want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety"


1 Peter 1:24 "ALL FLESH IS LIKE GRASS, AND ALL ITS GLORY LIKE THE FLOWER OF GRASS. THE GRASS WITHERS, AND THE FLOWER FALLS OFF."

Ezekiel 16:15 "But you trusted in your beauty and used your fame to become a prostitute. You lavished your favors on anyone who passed by and your beauty became his."


Proverbs 11:22 "Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion."
