"Well-Behaved Women Rarely Make History"

Here is a link to an article by Tony Reinke on the idea that well-behaved women rarely make history. I found it to complement our study on manhood and womanhood. While our culture pushes the idea that we must do something grand and make ourselves well-known, we should see the reality that a life lived for God's glory in whatever he gives us to do each day is what heaven takes note of. Here is the conclusion of Reinke's article:

God-centered piety demonstrated on earth will not often make it into the record of our historians. There’s too little raw data to make it possible. Well-behaved women rarely make history. Fair enough. But our historians will not have the final word. I suspect the story of every faithful believer, even the most ordinary in this life, has generated voluminous records for eternity, and will find its story recorded in the epic of this age, a library filled with a million volumes of an unabridged record of every act and attitude which riveted the attention of our Creator — and stabbed the demons with dread.

Let's be content with being faithful in whatever God gives us to do, even if it doesn't catch the attention of the world.
