A spiritual director…
I have met very few people in life that fit this bill and I learned so much from them. It wasn’t their preaching and teaching only, but how they quietly and peacefully shone Christ in the most difficult circumstances, how they asked forgiveness humbly for things that were not even their fault, for not giving in to whims that were not according to God’s Word.
I saw how it cost them greatly to uphold God’s law above man’s demands and I saw how they held no judgment against those who harmed them. And I keep striving to be such a woman myself. Not because I think I am smart or strong enough, but because Jesus is living in me, so how can I not desire to reflect Him as beautifully as He has been reflected to me by others?
