Hollywood Prayer Network On BeautySample
YOU ARE ALTOGETHER BEAUTIFUL
"The problem with beauty is that it's like being born rich and getting poorer." Joan Collins
"Taking joy in living is a woman's best cosmetic." Rosalind Russell
PRAY: Lord, thank You that You call me Your darling, beautiful one, and You tell me that I am altogether beautiful, without even a flaw, for You created me in Your image. Oh, may I truly believe that and live that way, as a precious, beautiful child of Yours. You have given me the gift of beauty to make my life richer and more meaningful, and I praise You for that!
REFLECT: Can you honestly believe that you are truly beautiful and that God calls you "darling" because you are so precious to Him? What would change in your countenance, your confidence, your stature, and your attitude if you really knew that God looks at you as His perfect love, without even a flaw?
ACT: Take today as the first day to not allow yourself to question your looks or God's unbelievable love for you. Don't allow yourself to say anything negative about yourself. Don't beat yourself up. Stop before you push away a compliment or a kind word from another. Embrace your beauty with joy and thanksgiving. And then if you make it through the whole day, do it again tomorrow, and then the next day, and the next...

About this Plan
HPN wants to meet your personal spiritual needs and supply you with a solid daily devotional, as well as encourage you to include praying for the people, the projects, and the incredible influence of the Hollywood entertainment industry. We see it as the world’s most influential mission field and yet the people there struggle with the same issues that we do. This week let’s tackle something that God gave us as a gift: BEAUTY. Beauty is a subject that opens the door for us to share our faith more deeply, to discuss the significance of God’s creation, and for self-reflection. So, let’s grasp the concept of beauty permeating our hearts, from the inside out, and also train ourselves to see beauty in the people and the world around us.
