Do You Want To Look Beautiful? God wants you to be beautiful, too!


There is a show called TLC's What Not To Wear! This show is hosted by two fashion consultants, Stacey London and Clinton Kelly. The show is what it is named, these two people try to coach people on what not to wear for their body type (which is usually what they're wearing then), and they are given clothes that suit their body. 
The premise of this show is: you are nominated, you accept a $5000 card that entitles you to a new wardrobe and you get a new hairstyle and makeup. But the nominee has to let Stacey and Clinton throw away what is throwawayable, and the person has to show by Stacey and Clinton's  rules! Sounds fair? Most contestants go for it!
Usuaally, the makeovers are both tastefully done and appropriate. Both Stacey and Clinton do not subscribe to skimpy, let-it-all-hang-out fashion, but as they say, you can look attractive without looking trashy.
While the women (and the few men) on the show were nominated by either family or friends or even bosses, their is one truly 'reality program' that can make you truly beautiful and can save your life. You don't need another human being to 'nominate' you, like in What Not To Wear! And not everyone in the world can be nominated in WNTW! You have to be an American citizen to be on the show, and while the show is on TV, only a certain amount of people will ever get onto this show! 
But the 'program' that I'm talking about is for 'whosoever wills!' There is no limit in terms of country, age, sex, ethnicity, nothing! And in the end, you will become beautiful, but this beauty is the everlasting kind!
What is this program? It is called "The Salvation Train!" You see, when you accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, the blood that was shed (spilled) on the ground cleanses away the ugliness and degrading effects of sin on your life and makes us whole, clean and pure again. He gives us beautiful instead of ashes. By the beating that He received, we are healed. His sacrificial death on the cross at Calvary can put us back together again and make us beautiful.
The bible says that charm is deceitful and beautiful is vain. But salvation beautifies the humble one who, knowing that he is a vile, ugly sinner, accepts Jesus Christ as Savior and are made new again.

"He (God) will beautify the meek with salvation!" Psalm 149:4 (KJV)
