Following and Trusting : Encountering God Out of the Box

“Becoming a woman of excellence essentially has nothing to do with our family, friends, or circumstances, but everything to do with our relationship to God and our choosing to trust Him with our lives… A woman of excellence rises above the norm through virtue and goodness. The qualities she is pursuing include knowing God intimately, abiding in Christ, surrender to God, discipline, discretion, a gentle spirit, holiness, wisdom, and taking responsibility for her life.” – Cynthia Heald, “A Woman of Excellence”

This quote has been posted on my wall since 1999. I hope one day, when people look back on my life, they can say this was true of me…
