What is true beauty?

You may agree or you may dissagree. Eaither way this is the first time ive blogged something! I've had it written on notepad for awhile but now have gotten the courage to post it as a blog. Enjoy?
WHAT IS TRUE BEAUTY?
we all can pick something out about ourselves that we don't like.
"im too fat" "my hair is horrid" "i hate my smile" "im ugly"

BUT WHY DO WE THINK THESE THINGS?
Most of it may be because of the media. in todays media it shows us people with flawless skin, perfect hair, lovely straight white teeth, but is what we see in the media true?
here is a clip to show you what goes into our media!
 behind all the editing and the make up there is true beauty

WHO DOES THIS EFFECT?

As all of this editing is getting better and better its going to effect alot of people.
Men,Women,Boys&Girls!
low self esteem is starting at a young age now beacuse of all these shows and adverts making us believe we have to be like what we see on Tv.
here is another clip showing who and how its effecting others!

im not sure if you noticed but there was writing on the video saying what these young girls said about them selves "hates her freckles" "thinks she's ugly" "wishes she was blonde" "afraid she's fat" . In these clips we have just seen females but it isn't just effecting females its also effecting males. Making them feel like they have to be like the men on the Tv. "six packs" "no grey hair" "perfect teeth" "and always attracting the ladies"

But even though we say negitive things about our selves. we have a God that has created us and all Gods creations are BEAUTIFUL!
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."

Amy can name 12 things wrong with her appearance
and that boy can name non .

We find it hard to accept the good things about us, or we feel that we may not be worthy to feel beautiful, but God sent his only son to die on the cross so we can be set free from all the bad stuff that is holding us down in life. & that we can have a relationship with him.
we can name things wrong with our appearance but God can't name one!
see your self as the God see's you fearfully and wonderfully made.
