Disciplines of a Beautiful Woman by Anne Ortlund


This book I found Grandma Ellie's shelf, and it turned out to be just what I needed for my Spring Break '08. I knew what it was about right from the name, and knew that I needed to cultivate the disciplines that lead to a beautiful woman. There was a lot about the priorities that are necessary to being shrewd and making good choices. There were a few of her teachings that she passed on as "the best way" that were really things that had just worked for her, but there were also a lot of things that had worked for her that will work for me. And I believe I saw through to the heart of it, that it is through cultivating a heart that is obedient and disciplined and correspondent behavior that God is in some way most free to work in us.
