Recognize your own outer and inner beauty as defined by God, not the media or others.
Most women know that God loves them, but might he love them more if they finally lost that last ten pounds, or got their hair to lay right, or finally found a pair of jeans that looked good and let them breathe? Well, maybe God doesn’t care about jeans, but women do, and all the talk about inner beauty hasn’t kept all of us from staring into a mirror and taking an inventory that never quite measures up. Enough Already will:
-Elevate the soul-freeing, spiritual truth that God is the Creator of beauty and that women are called to appreciate and care for themselves as his own.
-Enable women to accept God-given beauty so that when they look in the mirror they see his handiwork, not their flaws.
-Equip women to win the ugly struggle with beauty once and for all.
My thoughts:
“Enough Already addresses the origins of our ugly struggle with beauty as well as how to equip ourselves to win the battle.”
In this book, Barbara Roose encourages women to recognize and embrace their God-given beauty. Each of its twenty chapters contains a wealth of information and encouragement. The author shares her personal beauty stories and struggles, as well as those from other women she has surveyed. Scriptures and biblical teachings are also shared and each chapter concludes with questions for group discussion and personal reflection.
Barbara Roose writes with openness and honesty as she offers advice on how to win your “ugly struggle with beauty.” I enjoyed her message and appreciate the opportunity to read and review Enough Already.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through Litfuse Publicity. All thoughts expressed are my own.
