Ur Eyes Quote by Edwina Gateley
““Your eyes tell your story, sister, and I must listen— locked in your honest gaze. For you have captured me, and your deep-welled goodness softens and reminds me of, my essential self— before I sold my soul to Security and Comfort and Compromise. I think I love you. And I tremble in that truth— for I looked into your eyes and I cannot, ever, be the same. You have given more, Jesus said, than all the rest… You have given more than I… For I have never been that poor, I have never been that rich.””
