June 1 - National Nail Polish Day

Sometimes I wonder why makes up these special days? Today is no exception? Who decided to have a National Nail Polish Day?  and why?  Well, as you could have predicted, this special day was declared by a nail polish company in 2017.  They claim that June 1 is the day that people start worrying about their nails for the summer.

Essie, the nail polish company, believe that everyone is more concerned in the summer about their fingernails, and toe nails, because it has become a point of fashion and, of course, you wouldn't want to be out fashion on this beginning of summer!

What isn't being said by Essie and others, is that the outward appearance is not what defines us.  It's nice to have cute nails, and it is fun to show off our nice pedicure when we wear sandals. But is more important is the condition of our heart.  What is on the inside needs our full attention.  The Bible says in I Samuel 16:7, "For the LORD sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart."

Today's challenge is to enjoy a new color of polish on your nails, girls, but to think about how much you love others with your whole heart.
