1 Peter 3,4

Peter encourages wives who are married to unbelieving husbands to live in “purity and reverence,” and thereby win them over to Christ. He further clarifies that true beauty is inward, a gentle and quiet spirit, rather than outward adornment such as elaborate hairstyles, gold jewelry, or fine clothes.

In fact, outward adornment tends to attract based upon superficial qualities, whereas inner beauty’s attraction is based upon enduring and substantive qualities.

It’s also said, “If the barn needs painting, paint it.” LOL
