Pleasing!

How do you look?

A Kingdom Leader is pleasing in appearance. He takes care of minor details that make him agreeable to the senses of others.

Take a look at your finger nails. Have they been clipped and cleaned? Now look at your shoes. Have they been cleaned and shined? Are you dressed in a pleasing manor no matter where you find yourself?

Daniel and his friends had this quality. Even though they served under pagan kings and corrupt regimes they were attractive to others.

Daniel 1:4 says,  youths without blemish, of good appearance and skillful in all wisdom, endowed with knowledge, understanding learning, and competent to stand in the king’s palace, . . . (1)

When you stand in front of others how do you come across? Do you give the calm cool provided by the shade of a small tree during a hot day? You may stand in front of a king . . . but you represent the King of Kings!

May God bless your appearance in the eyes of others.
