It's so easy to compliment and see their beauty and grace at the first glance. They might even bring feelings of happiness upon receiving such richness. They may add a touch of needed color into your mundane existence. Praise them as you will from above...
But their beauty stems from what is truly happening from below. They are well-watered and rooted. They thrive because of their healthy habitat. Their source of strength and life is unlimited. Can I say the same about myself? Am I well-watered and rooted in God's word? Am I thriving in a healthy Christian habitat? Is my source of strength in God alone? Does my outer beauty reflect Jesus' beauty?
Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
See if there is any offensive way in me
and lead me in the way everlasting.
Psalm 139:23-24
