The renowned Quaker scholar Rufus Jones was speaking of the importance of having a radiant countenance. After his address, a woman “with an almost unbelievably plain face” came up and asked him what he would do if he had a face like hers. He replied, “While I have troubles of my own of that kind, I’ve discovered that if you light it up from within, any old face you have is good enough.”
Strange isn’t, how sometimes a beautiful face can be a curse and a plain face can be a blessing.
Does the Bible address such things? Glad you asked.
Who is like the wise? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? A man’s wisdom makes his face shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.
Proverbs 15:13
A joyful heart makes a cheerful face,
But when the heart is sad, the spirit is broken.
Putting on a little makeup could help your situation – that is, makeup with God.
Give it some thought.
