We all take {selfies} - or have taken one - or eventually probably will ....
The following video makes some great points... It is a little lengthy, but worth the watch...
So here is the thing ...
Be {confident} ... Not arrogant ...
Know that you are beautiful in your own way - in God's way - after all, He did create you & He did say "it was very good" ...
Be {modest} with your selfies ... the world doesn't need to see your cleavage, your thighs, your tummy, your attempt to looking sexy, etc. The Lord wants us to show our {inner beauty, our sweet spirit, our heart, His importance to us, etc.} ... not the body that was made for your future husbands eyes only ...
Matthew 23:27 {Inner Beauty}
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
1 Peter 3:3-5 {A Gentle & Quiet Spirit}
Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
1 Samuel 16:7 {God Looks At Your Heart}
But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.
Proverbs 31:30 {Fear of the Lord}
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
Song of Solomon 4:7 {Beauty of a Spouse in Marriage}
Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
Philippians 4:8 {What The Lord Sees As Pleasing}
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Genesis 1:31 {God saw Beauty in what he created - Including You}
And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 {A Heart Set on Eternity}
He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
Ask The Lord to help you in the areas that you struggle ... we all have room to improve! Be proud of how The Lord made you, keep your selfies - your image - pleasing to God's eyes ... save the "sassy-ness" for your husband - you will be so glad you did & The Lord will bless you for it.

Lots of love,
