Chain of thoughts...

Another familiar shared thought from a good friend ...HM.

"He said...God didn't promise a "beautiful life" but a "good life" when we follow him.
Beautiful doesn't always follows goodness. Goodness doesn't always follow beauty, Anything that is beautiful and NOT good is not of GOD."

My thoughts to connect : " Yes, very true and ONE can only be truly beautiful when one has GOD in his heart.
Infact, even those who think they are quite far from any religious life, The Goodness of the heart comes from somewhere...all we need to do is thirst for a more upclose and personal - individual relationship with Him.
The ONE and ONLY GIVER OF REAL GOODNESS AND BEAUTY. One is assured to never ran out of it when one continues to labor for his faith.
You will be perfect but at least one has to try... :) and just be good.
He will take care of the rest.
