1 Peter 3:4-5 You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God. This is how the holy women of old made themselves beautiful. They trusted God and accepted the authority of their husbands.
My Thoughts
I know someone that does this. If you knew the lady I am thinking of you would never guess her age. She is amazingly beautiful and if you knew her age you would know even more so how beautiful she is. She is so soft spoken yet when she speaks the whole room listens because they know that wisdom will flow from her mouth. Her husband has never fixed his own plate when she was home to do it for her, he respects her so much that he has taken her shoes off of her feet and slipped her house shoes on as she washed the dinner dishes. This lady loves God with her whole soul and she acts in that love of God by the way that she treats others. She meets them where they are at and she helps grow them by her example. The kindness she shows extends into others lives so much so that it reaches out and touches through the example of her actions, so many other people that she may never even meet. Any time I walk into a room where she is at I feel comfort and love, because she allows the comfort and love of God flow through her. She makes everybody around her want to be a better person. I have been around people that I didn't want to see me mess up, but this lady makes you want to be better even when she is not looking.. not for her... but for God. The amazing thing about her is that even if you mess up, you know that you can tell her and she will love you still, pray for you to be stronger in the future, do all that she can to help you grow... and never see you differently than before. I have learned so much from this lady, this amazingly beautiful lady. Because she loves God so much, my life will never be the same. I feel beyond honored to call her my friend. I feel special because she calls me friend. When we honor God with our lives people know. Do not pass up the chance to be all that you can be by loving God and honoring Him by living His word.
