Isaiah 53:2

He has no form or comeliness;
And when we see Him,
There is no beauty that we should desire Him

Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Some readers suffer from low-self esteem. They believe that others are inevitably smarter, more attractive looking, and/or richer than they. My response? That may be true. But turn your eyes toward Jesus. He was not physically attractive in the least, yet He was confident in His Father's love. Let Him be your example.

God Bless You!
