How does God see beauty and beautiful

The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. 1 Samuel 16:7

 “beauty is in the eyes of the beholder”.  What is beautiful to us may be ugly to another. To regard something as beautiful it must meet our own definition and concept of beauty. The fact that beauty is an individual concept is understood clearly by all. However, many don’t realize that God’s concept of beauty also is His own.

The Virtues of Mary

WHAT IS A VIRTUE? VIRTUS, Latin: strength, valor, power

MARY Picture of strength, valor and power She thinks what is right She thinks what is good

 Humility  Love for God  Love for her neighbor  Faith  Hope  Charity  Poverty in spirit  Obedience  Patience  Spirit of Prayer

MindINTELLECT PROPER OBJECT TRUTH INFINITE TRUTH WILL PROPER OBJECT GOOD INFINITE GOOD GOD BEAUTIFUL INFINITE BEAUTIFUL

Therefore, we can only see true beauty in God.

Our heart is restless until it rests in you… St, Augustine of Hippo, Early Church Father and Doctor of the Church

Beauty is more than just skin deep

Am I beautiful?

I am beautiful because.. I live with the truth I live truthfully As a Youth Minister I must be an epitome of what is TRUE… a mirror of God

I am beautiful because… I do what is good for myself and my neighbor I see the goodness in others.

The beauty in me is not the beauty of the world but the beauty of God which is in me. A beauty that is a bearer of truth and the good.

External coverings Cannot substitute the inner realities. A beautifully made-up face is not a guarantee that the heart too is beautiful. Sometimes, an ugly face can hide a deep capacity to love. But man would rather kiss the face rather than be embraced by the heart. Na Kuha, Vol. 1, 1997, Rev. Fr. Roman E. Caleon

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye… Antoine de Saint-Exupery The Little Prince
