Compliments are hard for many to accept. It is hard for someone to be gracious and
accepting of kind words, and I wonder why this is? Do we so often hear the negative that when
someone comments on our positive attributes we really don’t know how to deal
with it? Graciously accepting a
compliment is not an easy undertaking for many.
Tonight I received a compliment. I was commended for being who I am. Those who know me know what this means to
me! I am sometimes loud, a lot of time opinionated,
and always certain that I am 100% correct in all things. Well, maybe not all things, but at least 99% of them! I pray that I was gracious and accepting of
the compliment. It was a delight for me
to be told that this person enjoyed me for being ME!
Oh, and I did come home and tell my wonderful husband
what was said, and he agreed! What a night!
I agree with them. You are a Godly woman. You are caring, compasionate, and non-judgmental.
