When a consecrated believer follows the Lord faithfully several evidences appear sooner or later. Meekness and quietness of spirit become, in time, characteristics of daily life. Other outward signs are:
- Grateful acceptance of the will of God as it comes in the hourly events of each day
- Pliability in the hands of God to do or bear whatever he assigns us
- A sweet disposition, even under provocation
- Calmness in the midst of turmoil and confusion
- Willingness to let others have their way
- Refusal to notice slights and wrongs
- Absence of worry, anxiety and fear
