Thoughts on Kylie Bisutti

As a father of a pre-teen girl, I was happy to see an uplifting story this morning with Kylie Bisutti. Kylie was a Victoria's Secret supermodel and she gave an interview on Fox and Friends. After achieving her lifelong dream of becoming a supermodel, she had a change of heart. They type of change that can only come from one person, Jesus Christ. After walking the runway in lingerie, she came to the realization there was harm in what she was doing.

While not causing overt marital problems, she decided she was not properly honoring her marriage by her career choices. By worldly standards, she was doing nothing wrong, In fact, most men would probably put her on a pedestal and want everyone to see their wife as a sex symbol. But this is not about men, this is about a woman who through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit saw her actions as wrong.

Also telling was a story she told about her 8 year old cousin. Her cousin saw her life and wanting to be like her, told her she felt she had to throw up her food. You can imagine the impact that had on Kylie. This goes to show the Lord will use anybody to get to us when He wants to send us a message.

This example is exactly what we should be holding up to our daughters.
