Life is beautiful and we are surrounded by all things beautiful. The Bible says in Genesis that God saw all that he had made and it was good. This goes to show that if you focus on what is good about life, you will see the beauty in life.
The world has its own definition of beauty and that is the perfection in the outward appearance of things. But beauty is so much more than that. It’s not about the physicality of things or how perfect the thing looks but it is much more about how whatever it is makes you feel.
This is why the Bible entreats us to look past physical appearance. Let us go through these bible verses to see what the Bible has to say about beauty.
