Honoring Marriage

Kylie and her husband

I was watching an interview this morning on Kylie Bisutti, a 21yr old who quit her career to be more honoring to her husband and to the Lord. The interview is excellent. (The video footage that plays while she is talking-not so much.) Here is this young lady, just a few months older than me, with a modeling career with Victoria Secret. Once a position she fought hard to achieve, and now bowing out to seek a more wholesome dream. "The California native beat out 10,000 hopefuls in 2009 to win the Victoria’s Secret Model Search. She was 19 and recently married at the time." This idea that she would give up her career to reserve her body for her husband must be a foreign concept to our society. Boldly sharing that her decision is based off of her strong faith and her love for her husband is a double blow to our feminist minded culture. The reason why this story is receiving so much attention is because people can't understand the conviction to honor marriage and growing in your faith. However, she says she would like to be a role model for others. I think she is becoming a role model in more ways than she realizes. Daily women let their marriages crumble as they pursue their dreams and their careers. This woman gave up a career she beat out 10,000 people for, for the sake of protecting her marriage, and that's what it takes. To honor it above all else.
