Joshua 23:1-16; Isaiah 17:1-18:7; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-17
The ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. 1 Peter 3:4
There are people who photograph themselves and then use computer software to improve their appearance, before visiting a plastic surgeon to explore the possibility of looking like their computer image. Researchers at Boston University call it “Snapchat Dysmorphia.” Christian’s bodies are “the temple of the Holy Spirit” (1 Cor. 6:19, NKJV). They should be treated with sanctity and our attractiveness should be found in exemplifying Christ-like character such as the “ornament of a meek and quiet spirit” (1 Peter 3:4). —Brian Powlesland
Give us Thy meek and lowly mind; we would obedient be;
And all our rest and pleasure find in fellowship with Thee. —James Deck
