       In 1 Peter 3, the Apostle Peter talked about wives, by their actions and witness to their unbelieving husbands, actually winning them over to God. It was their external goodness that made the difference. It is interesting how Peter said that the unbelieving husband can be “won without a word” (ESV). That’s pretty impressive, and it would definitely take a godly woman of good, noble character to display Christ like that. And Peter also touched on the fact that women should not let their beauty only be displayed with their outward clothing and jewelry, but that really their beauty should come from within, on the inside, inside their hearts. When women do this, and really I think when any of us are not just displaying our goodness on the outward person, it makes God happy. We know that God loves us if we are a Christian and that we are good because of what Jesus accomplished for us. But I want to point out that God even loves those of you who are not Christians. He shows his love to the whole world everyday as he takes care of it, giving all of us things we do not really deserve. I want those who are not Christian today to realize that even though God loves you, you still need to come into a personal relationship with him to be truly free.
