I want to be the prettiness of Christ

I get a newsletter every day in my email, called Proverbs 31 Ministries. I loved what today's said. Here is an excerpt from it:

"Psalm 84:1 reminds me that God's dwelling place is lovely. So, I ask God to dwell in me richly. I want Him to be what radiates about me. I want Him to be my pretty today. Not my hair. Not my outfit. Not my efforts. But simply Him and His spirit dancing invisibly about me... shifting a wrong attitude, guarding my words, and whispering constant truths into my heart." ~Proverbs 31 Ministries newsletter for 9/24/09
May you be the prettines of Christ as you go about your day.
"Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel—rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God." 1Peter 3:3-4
