She understands the divine plan of our Heavenly Father and her role to bless lives. She is confident that any sacrifice she makes is worth something in an eternal sense. Her confidence grows because she is virtuous, lovely and gracious, which is even better than beautiful. She has pure motives. She is loving, gentle and kind. The hearts of her husband and her children safely trust in her. And so do everyone that she has been called to teach, lead, serve, and love — they are drawn to her because of that special spirit that she radiates. It is the image of God that she has in her countenance that is appealing and important. She is confident that she is fashioning a character and a record of performance that will be invited to stand in the presence of her Heavenly Father. She will be able to do so with the sense that she fully belongs there, that she is known by Him and loved, valued and treasured forever and always.
