Don't tell me show me!

People especially women love to observe.  We observe someone's hair, shoes, clothes, attitude...
We watch others like hawks.
We observe with much more interest how others react especially those that love to offer advise.

It is very  effortless for us to give a prescription of advise to solve someone else's problem but people aren't nearly as interested in advise as they are in seeing that the advise we so generously give we actually live in our own lives.

I am blessed to be surrounded by women who are genuine and who are not ashamed to share their battles, flaws and especially how they have overcome opposition in their lives.
I learn so much by listening to them.  I become encouraged because I see how their battles have changed them.  They are humble enough to accept their flaws but willing to seek whom God wants them to be.  They don't allow society to define what type of women they should be but they have matured in their faith that they worry about who God wants them to be.

Be different, be morally upright so no condemnation can be found not only amongst people but especially amongst God!
