Beauty of the Heart

BEAUTY OF THE HEART: AN ANGELIC EPITOME


It’s another bright day for brighter edition. This shouldn’t take our time because it’s safe-explanatory. Many have spoken on the issue of beauty. It’s time for me to speak. As an Apostle of God, my interest should be to tell you nothing but the truth. I must let you know that this is a critical issue that requires a critical approach.

Beauty is the state or quality of being beautiful. One or something is said to be beautiful when you find him/it very attractive or pleasant. You can also describe something that someone does as beautiful if it’s done very skillfully. In this edition, the context of the ‘beautiful’ we’re looking at lies in the former. On the other hand, one can be referred to as an angelic person when he/she is very good, kind and calm.

Going by the topic, you’ll agree with me that, personification as a figure of speech is into play or being utilized. That is, heart as an object was personified since angelic as a quality is only found among mankind. This is one of the reasons I called it a critical issue. Let’s proceed!

Yes, beauty can lie in the heart. That is, the heart could be beautiful. Here, the heart in question is that of human being. Thus, it (the heart) represents mankind. So for the beauty of the heart to be referred to as an angelic epitome, it means that it supersedes that of the facial outlook. Meaning that beauty of the face and/or skin is not enough to prove that one is truly beautiful. Angelic idiosyncrasies or endowments lie in the heart. It’s only one’s heart that can tell or prove to you how good, kind or calm he/she is. And these are the qualities of an angel. On this note, only one with such qualities could be said to be truly beautiful. Summarily true beauty is one of the qualities of the heart, and has nothing to do with the face, posture/stature, height, complexion, or nasal shape. Therefore beauty of the former ought to be of most concern to people instead of that of any of the latter. And this is where character comes in.

For over the years, many have derailed in search for true beauty because their only interest lie on facial beauty. Though facial beauty or countenance might be considered during such circumstance, but that shouldn’t be enough to convince you that the person is truly beautiful. You have to concentrate on the heart; that is, the person’s character. This should be your priority because it’s the most important aspect of beauty. If you have one whose heart is beautiful as a friend, you should be rest assured that you’ll always be filled with unquantifiable happiness due to his/her presence in your life. On the contrary, the joy that comes from the facial beauty has a limit. It turns sour, fades, and expires. Believe me, these are facts. So while searching for or considering a friend, partner or spouse, your major interest should lie on how beautiful the person’s heart is.

Brethren, you don’t need a prophet to tell or inform you how beautiful a certain heart is. You can find it out yourself. This is where time comes in. Unlike facial beauty or countenance that can be detected by mere looking at the person involved, in this case you have to bring out your time to examine his/her character(s). No time would be too much for this close examination. While taking your time, put it at the back of your mind that, you’re searching for happiness that shall yield everlasting profit. So you’ve to earn your wage(s). And you can’t achieve that without considering or abiding by time. It’s better you take millions of seconds to acquire what would make you live long than, to take few seconds and obtain what shall lead to your eternal state of doom.

How are you expected to utilize the aforementioned time? You should ensure that both of you spend time together often. Create various different occasions/circumstances for the relationship. This may involve the good or ugly circumstance which ought to be cough up by you. So it may require disguise; yes, you may need to create some fake occasions in order to unfold some hidden attitudes of your partner(s). Why this is very important is that, most time your partner may disguise his/herself to prove to you that his/her heart is pure/beautiful. Don’t forget, “Not all that glitters is gold.” But if you can create series of events involving disguise when necessary, the truth must be disclosed/unveiled. Honestly, the truth can only be hidden for some (a short) time after which it explodes. Sure, the truth explodes when it’s due.

In a nutshell, you’ve to take your precious time if you truly want the best. If you can abide by this, you will surely testify that, beauty of the heart is truly an angelic epitome (symbol). Think about it!
