Dare to be Different

I wrote this for the wonderful free girls’ publication Ladies-in-Waiting a while back and I just wanted to share it with you today.

Dare to be different



Dare to take the path that few choose



Dare to put people before your plans for the day



Dare to put purity before being accepted



Dare to put holiness before coolness



Dare to put His way before your way



Dare to put His reputation before you rights as a citizen



Dare to put kindness before popularity



Dare to put modesty before being in style



Dare not to take offense when you are being teased



Dare to stand up for others even when it might cost you



Dare to choose loneliness over bad friends



Dare to work when others play



Dare to help clean up when others might laugh at you for doing it



Dare to be polite even when someone is being rude to you



Dare to be a woman belonging to God even when others only belong to ‘themselves’



Dare to be Different
