Have you ever heard that phrase - Don't judge a book by its cover?


What a little make up can do
   You don’t need to tell anyone else about your deep dark secrets, but you do need to talk about it to your partner (this is assuming you spoke to God about it too). Your partner has every right to know. Don't hide anything, be honest and sincere no matter how bad it was or how much it hurts. This is not someone who is going to sit there and judge you; this is someone who is trying to find out about you to be able to make you happy. Let your partner know what your likes and dislikes are in everything, but most importantly, in a relationship. Don't be nervous, act yourself so your partner can see who you are, don’t try to be someone you are not.

 
Fat can be transformed into muscles
   When I met Leonardo I was a little nervous, it’s normal to be nervous because this is something new. However, I remembered I had to calm down and act myself so Leonardo could know the type of person I really am. I don’t think he was nervous, and if he was, he didn’t show it. He was the one that made me laugh and helped me calm down. I still remember when I first met him, my parents were by my side and I was just standing there while everyone else was sitting down, then he said “Please, Elsie come sit here next to me.” Oh man, I thought I was going to die, I was so nervous that I sat next to him but I began playing with my hair, I began getting itchy, I began to fix my skirt and dusting off my shoes, I began doing so much things. Then he saw that I was nervous and said “Elsie, what’s wrong, are you nervous?” and I said “Yes, just a little” so he smiled and said “Its ok, relax, there is nothing to be nervous about” that helped me to calm down and I wasn’t nervous anymore.
 
When this special someone comes to you, it's normal for you to start checking him/her out but don't start judging.
 
Have you ever heard that phrase – Don’t judge a book by its cover?
  
   This means, don't judge your partner by what you expected of him/her. Maybe to you, the woman of your dreams is suppose to have thick eyebrows and the partner God gave you has thinner eyebrows then you expected, maybe in your dreams your partner has 20/20 vision but the one God gave you wears glasses, maybe you wanted a man with a tremendous six pack and big biceps and God gave you a man fifteen pounds overweight; does this mean that God messed up and gave you the wrong partner?
 
 
Of course not! Looks can be deceiving!
 
   What counts the most is what is on the inside. Of course, appearance is also important for a woman and man of God, but in first place comes Spirituality. Don’t judge your partner by what you see and dislike, but instead look for things in him/her that you DO like. The things you like will overpower the things you don’t really like. Thin eyebrows can grow out to become thicker eyebrows, glasses can be replaced with contact lenses, fifteen pounds overweight can be transformed into a tremendous six pack and big biceps through exercise and lifting weights.
 
Look for things you like, like the character and the way he/she talks to you, their dedication in doing the work of God, the way he/she treats you, anything! Remember, whatever you dislike can always be fixed with a change of hair do, a little lifting weights, a little make -up and so on. Don’t let this bother you, put the spirituality first because this is what’s hard to find.

  1. Dear Mrs Elsie

    This post speaks volumes. I have always had an image of the kind of man I wanted God to bless me with. Funny thing, is that I got the exact thing, but spiritually he was not well. I was so focussed on how he should look like, instead of Who he should have inside of him.

    Now I have learned to ask God for a man of God. Someone with a heart after His Own. Most importantly I have learned to seek God more than I seek a future husband! He should be my first Husband.

    Thanks for this post. God bless

  2. I am so guilty right now.Of cos I knew that I should over look appearance for I am not perfectly made myself but I always had a description in my mind and I have even dismissed people because of how they looked.

    Now in this blog I am learning to consider this but not let it be my deciding factor,character first and if we are compatible.I truly thank God for this blog.I had so many questions...and I have just found the ocean with answers that still continue.

    Kisses
