God’s gift

I met a beautiful model on a plane this week. She just won a television reality show as the top model, beating out 11 other models over a twelve week period. She had been on David Letterman, the Today show, and other television shows and her career was really taking off. She showed me several magazines she was in including People magazine and Vogue. She was incredibly beautiful with gorgeous green eyes. She was also very personable, funny, talented, and I enjoyed talking with her very much.

She was on her way to NYC to begin what she hopes will be a fabulous career. Never missing an opportunity I did mention to her that success was not without its pitfalls. Too much money too fast often leads to a life filled with misery instead of bliss. Madonna and Brittany Spears for example were both blessed by God with beauty and talent; however they lost discretion somewhere along the way. They have their following, but they remind me of pigs. There is something to be said for decency, modesty, and virtue that money cannot buy and gold and diamonds cannot reproduce. I pray that this young lady can maintain her youthful innocence as her career skyrockets and she faces both the good and bad that will invariably come from it.


Proverbs 11:22

As a ring of gold in a swines

snout,

So is a lovely woman who

lacks discretion.

How well do you know the Bible?

There are three that bear witness in heaven and there are three that bear witness on earth; name them.

1 John 5:6-8
