Just wearing good manners is enough. ā
Decent clothes with an unpleasant attitude are just like wearing Jordan shoes with smelly feet inside. Neckties cannot conceal lies, and well-groomed hair cannot conceal a dishonest mind. The manners of the man are the most priceless fragrance he can wear, greater than any expensive perfume. Remember, lavish perfumes cannot cover the negative scent of attitude.
āPalabra de honor,ā which means āthe word of honor,ā a gentleman is true to his words and does have integrity in his actions. He is not a fictional male, but a faithful man of God; he is not flawless, but his commitments manifest in his actions, and he may have shortcomings, but his compassion reflects in his service. In a world full of deceitful men, choose to be a gentleman true to his words and commitments, telling the truth, sharing the gospel, and loving with all honesty and loyalty.
As Christ proved his love and words of promises, who, being in a form of God, made an effort to step down on earth with all humility and sacrifice Himself on the cross of Calvary to prove his love, that is an example of having a word of honor. To become a gentleman is to know Christ with your heart; being a gentleman is not a role you play, it is who you become when you have Jesus Christ in your heart.
In Tagalog, we say, āAng tunay na maginoo ay totoo sa kaniyang salita at may Panignoong kinikilala.ā
Matthew 11:29 KJV: āTake my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.ā
Proverbs 20:5-7 KJV: āCounsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out. Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find? The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.ā
May the Lord Find us Faithful
