English: Diadem. Gold. Greek, probably made in Alexandria, Egypt, 220 - 100 B.C. The piece probably belonged to a noble woman of the Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt. The clasp is shaped as a protective Herakles knot
If I am a King's daughter, I am a princess and all rights of being one is due me. But with it, comes duties and responsibilities to keep up with the stature. The question, then, would be, am I fit to be one, not by virtue of my inheritance and bloodline, but by my actions and character?
Psalm 43:13, means to me, that being a King's daughter, I would be all glorious within. My clothing is embroidered with gold. This is a picture of the marriage between Christ, the head of His Church, as the Bridegroom, and the Bride, His Church, chosen, pure and Holy, sanctified....... therefore, all glorious in the chamber (heaven).

To apply this knowledge into my life here on earth, and in order for me to be worthy of this calling (a member of the Bride/Church/Body), I have these points to consider:
1. I must be sure, I have professed/vowed to be a Bride-meaning I am sure of my salavation. I am a gentile, my bloodline is not a direct one, but by adoption. I became a child of God, through Jesus' death on the cross and by His resurrection, I was redeemed and purchased, my sins which blocked me entry to heaven, washed away spotless.
2. I shall continue to abide in God, to cleave - securely cling to the Vine, by my daily life-inhalation with the purifying words in the scripture, and exhale in prayers everything necessary, like confessions and petitions as well as my Praises and Thanksgiving towards God.
3. Daily life of devotion, being quiet outwardly and inwardly, in meditation of His words, His speaks to me His instructions, guidance and wisdom .
4. Think about others, their welfare and love them as I love myself. Encourage one another in prayer and in words-to edify them and to help each other towards the day when Christ Jesus comes back for us.
Of course, our outer self, our shortcomings, our sins are not important to God. What is important is how we live all this things up, how we dealt with our sins through confessions, how we have forgiven other who have sinned against us ....in short how we traveled this life here on earth.
The beauty should come from within.
Note: It is known that Earthly Princes and Princesses are born and are trained, in all finesse, for the position and duties they would, one day, be occupying.
How would we then be prepared for our position in the Kingdom of Heaven as prince and princesses?

~Isaiah 62:3~
Lord, may I be worthy to adorn your court when that day comes. Help me while here in my sojourn, as an alien on this earth. Apart from your guidance and will, Oh God, I am nothing. May I be a vessel for your honor and glory.
