Sunday, August 4th

When you look at a woman's face, what's the very first thing you notice?  Some will say her smile or her nose, but most of the time, the answer is her eyes.  Why is that?  Most of the time, a person can tell a lot about someone else by his/her eyes.  Even the Scripture tell us in Matthew 6:22 that,

"The light of the body is the eye:"

What exactly does that mean?  Well, it means that your eyes are an entrance point for what you take into your mind.  If your eyes allow it, your mind will be filled with all sorts of material that won't be honoring to God.  In the same way, a woman's eyes can also reveal what has already been taken into her mind.  A girl's eyes ought to be radiant; they ought to illuminate light--Christ's light.  When we consider this, it should influence the way we apply our eye make-up.  It has been said that the eyes are the window to the soul.  If that is so, then the seductive look would certainly not be very becoming of a Godly young lady.  Consider the warning in Proverbs 6:25,


"...neither let her take thee with her eyelids." 

According to this verse, a woman's eyes can be enticing.  Girls, be careful what your eyes say about you!  Make sure your eyes are inviting because they are full of joy, purity, and radiance.  In other words, make sure your eyes are saying to young men what your heart is saying---which, by the way, ought to be, "Let me tell you about my Jesus."
