Having gone through the trenches of unforgiving challenges, she now walks in wisdom, no longer seeking validation from others.
She knows how to speak, when to speak, and when to just listen.
She understands that the foundation of a house is the most valuable part of a home yet it is never seen. Meaning that not everything needs to be shared in order to be understood or appreciated.
When she moves, she moves with grace and without the need to attract attention, but without a word she commands respect. Because she knows that only the Queen has the full ability to move at all angles on a chessboard.
There’s wisdom and discipline in her silence. Understanding that no explanation is ever needed. She knows her wisdom may not always be recognized by those who don’t possess it or understand it so she stands tall and confident.
She’s been compared to diamonds that are built to withstand tremendous pressure and pearls that comes from the ocean locked in the shell of an oyster and even gold that is only found in the depths of the earth. Because neither of these precious jewels is found on the surface, she knows the value is in its rarity.
She understands the complexities of her struggles, her battles, and her bruises because they gave her undeniable strength and are the very reason she’s learned to be silent for hearing and healing. She knows that because of her quietness, she’s viewed as cold, shy, or even unkind however, she knows her purpose is greater than the approval of mankind.
She doesn’t live by societal limitations of being told that if you don’t bear all, or all of your heart, your not trustworthy. Because she understands that no matter how much she tries to explain herself they will never understand the kind of wealth she has because her journey takes an unfamiliar path.
She realizes that most people see through reflective lenses therefore can’t see beyond their own selfish perspectives.
So she’s learned not to live for the understanding of people, but for the understanding of the Most High. She allows her steps to be guided not by hers but by those of the one who created she.
She embraced that in the right season, for the right reasons, at the right place, and during the right time she would be granted a blessing. Gifted to her the one who will understand the depths of her soul, accept her flaws, and realize her true worth. The gift that found her knows that she is clothed in strength and in dignity, bound by determination, and rooted in faith.
You see, she patiently waited for the one who’s meant to understand her journey and resonate within her testimony and will accept her and passionately, gently embrace all of her bumps, battles, and bruises that have become beauty marks to the one who affectionately captures all the corners of her heart.
To give up or to have settled was never an option because she knows, she knows, she knows Her Worth.
