()
About this ebook
Do you know that in almost every woman’s handbag, there is a lotion, mirror, comb, lip-gloss and many other related things? What are these there for? Beauty is so much sought after. The Beauty Industry is a multi- billion dollar business. But what is the truth about beauty? What is surprising about it? How can one be beautiful? Should one desire Outward or Inner-Beauty? Does God even care about our beauty? The answers to these and many other questions are surprising?
This book is about the 6 Surprising Truths About Beauty. It attempts to address and answer some of the issues related to beauty. It is an Inspiration from the life of Rebekah in Genesis 24. She was a young woman who was not only outwardly beautiful but also had Inner-Beauty.
The 6 Surprising truths include that: First -God recognizes, delights and honors your Beauty. Second -Men have the God given gift of recognizing Beauty. Third - God is the owner of your Beauty. Fourth-Inner Beauty is far better than Outward-Beauty. Fifth- Inner Beauty will win you Favor & Blessings and lastly that Jesus is The Fountain of Inner-Beauty. Come with me on this journey to explore the 6 Surprising Truths about Beauty.
This book doesn’t talk about how you can be Miss Universe, or how you can be spotted by the Editor of the monthly Beauty Magazine so as to feature on the front page. Rather in this book, I wish to expound on the fact that God is interested in your beauty. You are precious to Him. He delights in you being beautiful. You will learn: what true beauty is, and the two major forms of Beauty- Outward and Inner-Beauty.
Regardless of the struggles you may be going through about your outward appearance, you are so dear to Him- and He cares. You will learn the importance and relevance of having Inner-Beauty- and the benefits and practical ways of developing it in your life. You will explore certain ways that can enrich your Inner- Beauty- yet not neglecting your outward appearance.
Do you also know that men have the unique gift of recognizing and honoring beauty? An average man can spot a beautiful woman from a far. You will learn how men can constructively utilize this heaven-sent gift to the glory of Jesus.
You will learn the benefits of having Inner-Beauty in your family, at Church and at your work-place.
Lastly, I highlight how Jesus is the Fountain of True Beauty. Though He was not majestic in his appearance, yet he had Inner-Beauty- and he ministered to us the Good News. Due to our sins, we are not beautiful and are un- acceptable before God. Yet because of Jesus’ beauty we are accepted by God as His dear children. You will learn how relying unto Jesus and yielding to the Holy Spirit can help you have that Inner- Beauty which is more precious to God.
I know that you have a desire to learn and improve yourself; that is why you have picked on this book. I hope this book will inspire you to desire to be beautiful – not only on the outward, but most importantly on the inward. By being beautiful, you would have positioned your life to where God can use you for exploits in His Kingdom. Through your beauty, God desires that you reach levels and places you have never dreamed of. God will take you from one level of glory to a higher one.
I pray that you will get hold of these 6 truths about Beauty and I trust that God will make you beautiful and bless you beyond your wildest dreams. I thank you for choosing to read this Book.

Introduction
Do you know that in almost every woman’s handbag, there is a lotion, mirror, comb, lip-gloss and many other related things? What are these there for? Do some people care so much about their appearance? I have realized that some people desire to be beautiful. Beauty is so much sought after. The Beauty Industry is a multi- billion dollar business, but what is the truth about beauty? What is beauty, and what is surprising about it?
The Oxford Advanced Learners’ Dictionary – 7th Edition, defines beauty as the quality of being pleasing to the senses and to the mind. This means that a person has to interpret an entity as being beautiful. The person will thereby feel attracted towards it.
What is surprising about beauty? A research conducted at the University of Miami in 2009 showed that good-looking students got higher scores than other students with average appearance¹. You and I realize that in our society, to some people- beauty comes before the brains. Shouldn’t the brains come before
