my mission

^{1 Peter 3:3-4//}

³ Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. ⁴ 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.

It is fun to play dress up and to feel confident in who you are but remember that none of this matters in the grand scheme of things. We all wear different clothes, jewelry, personalities, and struggles. Love one another for who they are and look past whatever they are wearing and get to know the person God created them to be. Love people.
