WFW: Fading

I'm celebrating my Blogoversary this week--be sure to stop by Monday's post to enter the drawing for the wonderful book Women of Passions: Ordinary Women Serving an Extraordinary God.

Welcome to Word-Filled Wednesday, hosted this week by eLisa at Extravagant Grace. Be sure to stop by there for more visual inspiration from Scripture.

Got a picture VERY SIMILAR to this in my head to go with this verse that was there too. SO glad I was able to find it! :D

Photobucket
Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Proverbs 31:30

May we all be women to be praised!

Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to stop by Extravagant Grace for more

    I have been going through Proverbs 31 lately, oh so much to learn and grow in! But, I no longer hate the Prov 31 woman but am encouraged by her now! LOL! Wonderful post :)

    I love this verse and it is such a great reminder that beauty is only skin deep. A heart for the Lord is true beauty.
    Have a praise filled day,
