1 Pe 3:3-4 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.
Sorry to say ,many people value the outward appearance during the initial stages of group or union formation. God has created us to appreciate beauty in others. But this may not solely sustain the attracted for long .There is need for character supplements to guarantee sustainability.
Physical attraction is inadequate and insufficient. It does not give a solid foundation for a lasting relationship. There is a need to be clothed with a meek and a quiet spirit. Such a spirit is priceless. Meekness is closely linked with humility, gentleness and kindness. A quiet Spirit is not a weak spirit nor is it self – centered.
The Bible is not against physical attractiveness ,but warns that one should not give too much significance only to external beauty. The church as the bride of Christ need also to be adored with patience,gentleness,kindness to say a few. These traits reveal true heart motives and eliminates any possible termination of an already established union.
