Who Do You Turn To?

When people talk about you what do they say? She is so nice..... Oh her house is so pretty.... That lady can bake..... Her kids are so well behaved....  She loves the Lord..... How do they know that about you?  Because they have spent time with you.  Because they have eaten your food, been in your home, done play dates with you, served in church with you, been on trips with you....they have done life with you.
