A MORE EXCELLENT WAY
And yet I will show you the most excellent way (1 Corinthians 12:31b).
It's the first thing I check out in the daily newspaper. When my Good Housekeeping arrives, I hop there tout de suite. Be it Emily Post, Heloise, or anything labled "Dear [fill in the blank]" β I love advice columns.
Here's my take on it: Why reinvent the wheel when you can learn from someone else's experiences, mistakes, and pointers? I'm all for that.
As the articles, devotions, and Bible studies started pouring in for this LWQ, I found myself setting aside the editor's cap and stepping back to soak in the counsel of the stories. Page upon page provided fresh perspective and wake-up calls. Sisterly advice, stemming from "been-there-done-that, you'll-be-okay" convictions, conveyed His healing and presence at work in many lives β lives infused with gratitude, hope, and plain hard work.
This issue reveals the wise ways of women of faith who know deep joy and have experienced unspeakable heartbreak. With the Holy Spirit as their Guide, these sisters continue to walk in their heavenly Father's love, proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ so that others may, in turn, come to know a more β a most β excellent way.
Advice taken. Lives changed. To God be the glory. Amen.
