How to be beautiful inside and out | A collaboration

As I focused on making my outward appearance beautiful I met and had a wonderful chat with a classmate of mine. Through our discussions another classmate was added and we three realized that we all focused on beauty in one form or the other.
 
Evelyn (also a blogger) focused on the biblical side of things
Deon (Blogger) focused on the healthier side of it all.
And guess what? Your girl was smack dab in the middle.

So we decided to use all of our knowledge to collaborate. I was given the opportunity to give Evelyn a makeover which she loved and to also give Deon some tips that a man can use to have his skin looking more youthful. {I use these tips with my husband}

In an effort to greater understand the physical part of it all. I immediately consulted a doctor and was put on a diet because I had so many complications health wise, though I may not look it I have a whole lot to deal with where my health is concerned.
As a result I was put on a very strict diet called a low Amylose Diet.
   

To see and learn more about my new diet watch the video below of me      preparing my meals. 

• Evelyn also gave us biblical proof / backing to go with all that we were doing.

What does the Bible have to say about physical beauty?
1Timothy 4:8 tells us: Bodily exercised profits little, but godliness is profitable for the life that now is and the life that is to come.
It does not say physical exercise is not profitable, but reminds us that its profit is only for this life. This demonstrates that my emphasis on it should be with the understanding that it’s not an investment in eternity.

• Esther in the Bible was described as “fair and beautiful” (Esther 2:7b). Before she could be brought before the king she was prescribed a beauty regimen that lasted all of 12 months and included: six months with oil of myrrh, six months of perfuming and other beauty treatments (Esther 2:12). The Bible records that the king loved her above all the other women and made her queen. But Esther’s physical beauty was matched by her character, which made her even more attractive to everyone in the palace, and God used her greatly to save his people the Jews at that time.
  

• In Daniel 1, three of the Jews who were set apart to work directly in the king’s palace chose to engage in a vegetarian diet for a specific period of time, as opposed to consuming the king’s lavish dietary offerings. Just as eating the right foods will keep us healthy and strong, studying the Bible will nourish our hearts.

Who would have thought that these three aspects of our journey would all be seeded in the scriptures? Surely not me.

In the end of it all we all garnered knowledge that would stick with us till the end.
