The Beauty That Matters Most

Susan Boyle made Britain and the world take notice the other day in a reality TV performance that rocked the watching world. It was on a program called, "Britain's Got Talent" You will recognize some of the judges. Google, youtube, or yahoo it. Do whatever you have to do, but watch it. I have added a couple links for the article and the video. I hope they work. It will inspire you. Think of the Biblical applications from the article (attached) from "The Herald." It is an article that brings to the front what matters most. This is the kind of stuff we as the church need to be watching in order to educate the world as to why this woman inspired us so much. It brings out the positives and negatives in a wonderful way.
1 Samuel 16:7 The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."
Isaiah 53:2 He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
WATCH IT! Then read the article below...

I saw this on the news this morning. I am hoping this made a big statement with the public. Thank you for giving us biblical background on this subject. Her performance brought tears to my eyes. It just goes to show that God gives each of us special gifts.

Enjoy your mini vacation with Amy!

yeah - ok - i teared up a bit also, seeing the video followed with the newspaper article was real powerful - wow! how much prayer will it take to rid myself of that same behavior - that same judgemental stare? i don't know, but it's on the top of my list now
