A gentle and quiet spirit....a woman's best ornament


Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

1 Peter 3:3-4



This "beauty that comes from within" is that
meekness,
quietness,
gentleness,
brokenness of heart,
contrition of spirit,
humility of mind,
tenderness of conscience,
which are fitting to the children of God.

A gentle and quiet spirit is a woman's best ornament.

As to other gay and unbecoming ornaments, let those wear them, who wish to serve and to enjoy
the lust of the flesh,
the lust of the eyes,
and the pride of life.

Let the "daughters of Zion" manifest they have other ornaments than what the world admires and approves.
Let them covet
the teachings of God,
the smiles of His love,
the whispers of His favour.

The more they have of these, the less will they care for the adornments which the "daughters of Canaan"
run so madly after; by which also they often impoverish themselves, and by opening a way for admiration, too
often open a way for seduction and ruin.
