DISCRETION
Today's reading: Jeremiah 28-29, 1 Thessalonians 2:9-3:13, Proverbs 11:22-26

"A woman who is beautiful but lacks discretion is like a gold ring in a pig's snout." Proverbs 11:22 NLT

Do you know what discretion is?

Merriam-Webster defines it as the quality of having or showing discernment or good judgement. Especially: cautious reserve in speech.

Make-up cannot make up for discretion...no matter how thickly or expertly applied.

The most fashion forward styles cannot fill in for discretion...no matter how well fitting the fabric.

Eloquence and poise cannot be substitutes for discretion...not if the speaker wants the hearer to truly hear.

It's about knowing what you know and when to let those around you know what you know in a way that shows what you know is worth knowing...in a beautiful way...no matter what you are wearing.
