Something special about them demands our attention. They are like black-eyed Susan flowers surrounded by weeds and trees. We notice them first.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">They may be in the middle of a crowded room. Yet, our eyes follow them. They stand out from everyone for many reasons:</p> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>Physical beauty</li> <li>Laughter</li> <li>Personality</li> <li>Voice</li> <li>Clothes</li> <li>Behavior</li> </ul> <p style="text-align: left;">However, if people seek attention, we soon tire of them. We don’t enjoy a constant attitude of <em>look at me</em>. If they focus their attention on others, we like to be around them.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">The best way to stand out in a crowd is to point people to something greater than self. <a href="https://dianaderringer.com/stand-tall/">Standing tall </a> and <a href="https://dianaderringer.com/stand-firm/">standing firm </a>are far more important than standing out.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">“Keep your eyes on Jesus, our leader and instructor” (Hebrews 12:2 TLB).</p> <p style="text-align: left;">Do you have an expression you want explained?
