God Does Not Looks At Your Outward Appearance, But At Your Heart

It is a fact that our culture judges people on their looks. And it is hard at times when people are mean, rude, and hurtful. We just want to crawl under a rock and die. But we need to remember what is important, and who really matters in our lives. 

God is what matters in our lives. God is not concerned about our looks but the condition of our heart. So when people attack your outward looks, look up and realize they do not matter but God matters and you are beautiful to him.
