Quote

“For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”

~Audrey Hepburn

I really liked this quote. I'm not sure why - but it really caught my attention. Although I believe Audrey Hepburn meant this in a very secular way, I immediately viewed it in a very special way. It is true that it is always valuable to see the good in others first and foremost. Ephesians 4:29 (Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.) whole heartdely agrees with her statement about speaking only "words of kindness." However I know not how she meant her last phrase: "...and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." However, for me as a Christian, this statement holds a great and completely true statement. We never walk alone. Christ is always present. Never does he leave us, nor forsake us. Our God, who is SO mighty to save, is always there. He never leaves us. Never forgets about us. Never overlooks us. Never. Our prays never fall apon deaf ears. We can approach this horrid and sin-infected world with that comforting knowledge. "Sin no longer has a hold on me, for I have been bought with the blood of Christ!"
