Make Up Your Mind


Are you "worth it," Loreal, or are you afraid the world will see

That you weren't "born with it?" Nor was Maybelline.

"Easy" and "breezy" you may be, Cover Girl,

But your beauty won't measure up in this shallow world.

So, what happens when the pressed powders fall?

Off come the matte creams and your painted on smile

Only to reveal who you've been all the while-

Insecure

Lonely

Ashamed

And without

The confidence and grace this world thought you were all about.

Well, we're no longer deceived; the curtain has come down.

Do you want to know where true beauty is found?

It's at the foot of the Cross, where Christ laid down His crown

To offer you His Life, to which on your own you could never amount.

So, please!

Give up the schemes of Maybelline.

Loreal is a liar! You worth is in Your King!

His yoke is easy, so forget about being "breezy."

A "Cover Girl" you weren't created to be.

You're His Chosen Pearl, so choose Christ for eternity!



"Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she smiles at the future.
She opens her mouth in wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. 
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain; but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised."
- Proverbs 31:25, 26, 30
