Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. (Colossians 3:12)

Greetings! Did you see the Oscars on Sunday? I only caught a brief glimpse of them, and no I don’t buy into Chris Rock’s theory that straight black men don’t watch the Oscars. Nonetheless, from what I could see, at the Oscars there was a lot of emphasis on fashion and beauty. It’s apparent that the stars spent mega bucks to look good. The good news for us is that we don’t have to spend a lot of money to look good. Instead, we can observe the following “Beauty Tips for Everyone.” If we do, then we'll look good everyday and even better than the Hollywood stars!

In other news, the East Washington Heights Baptist Church 40 Days of Purpose Kickoff Campaign will begin this Saturday at 12noon with a Fish Fry and if you are in the Washington area, then we invite you to join us. We will also begin a daily 40 Days of Purpose email on this upcoming Monday.

Beauty Tips for Everyone
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For beautiful eyes, look for the good in other people.

To lose weight, let go of stress, hatred, anger,
contentment and the need to control others.

To improve your ears, listen to the word of God.
Rather than focus on the thorns of life, smell the
roses and count your blessings, giving thanks for each one of them.

For poise, walk with knowledge and self-esteem.
To strengthen your arms, hug at least 3 people a
day. Touch someone with your love.

To strengthen your heart, forgive yourself and
others. Don't worry and hurry so much.

Rather than walk this earth lightly, walk firmly
with determination and leave your mark.

For the ultimate in business, casual or evening
attire put on the robe of Christ; it fits like a glove but allows room
for growth. Best of all, it never goes out of style and is appropriate for any occasion.

Doing these things on a daily basis will certainly
make you a more beautiful person.

Peace Is Not The Absence Of Trouble But The Presence of God

Peace and Blessings, Pastor Kip Banks
