"a Woman Eyes " By Joseph Goodwill
If you take a moment to look deep inside a woman's eyes you can see the
window to her soul. You can see her joy and her pain; her hopes and her
dreams. She may never say a word but her eyes can tell a whole story. I know
because I have had the pleasure to know many beautiful and wonderful women
in my life. But 6 women changed my life along with Christ. They were my
mother, my grandmother, my two aunts, my cousin's wife, and my beautiful wife.
When I look into their eyes I saw where I came from, where I am now and where I
am headed. The man I have become I owe to God. The way I treat a woman I
owe to my mother. A woman is a daughter, a sister, a mother, a wife, and that is
just for starters. You can find her at church, you can find her in the community,
you can find her being a nurse to a child's wounds, and you can find her being a
rock to her husband when the world is knocking him down. And after all of that
she is still a woman in every sense of the word. I know man is the head of the
house and God is its foundation but a woman is its CEO; Chief Everything
Officer. My mother is no longer here on earth with me but if I want to see what
she stood for all I have to do is look into a woman's eyes. I don't only want to say
thank you to the women who changed my life but thank you to all women for with
God and you everything is possible.
