Why A Woman With God In Her Eyes?

It has been said that a rose by any other name is still a rose. Is the same true of women? Perhaps it does not matter if a woman has God in her eyes or not. Physically, she is still a woman even if instead of God, she has “gunk” in her eyes, right? Maybe too much is being made of the notion of a woman with spiritual qualities when all that matters is she is a female.

Most of us recognize that there is something special about a woman with God in her eyes. But do we really understand why it is not only “special” but also important? I suppose part of the problem is that as individuals, we get so caught up in our own challenges, fears, hopes and desires that we lose sight of the MAIN THING. See “Keeping the Main Thing The Main Thing” on March 20, 2007 (

So, why a woman with God in her eyes? Because it continues the dialogue that began with God speaking to the woman and to the man which then leads to the man and the woman having a “spiritually intelligent” conversation. See “Spiritual Jive Talkers Club” on June 24, 2007. (

Not only will the woman and the man speak “sweet nothings” to each other, but they will also share their desires to help each other become more like what God has envisioned for them to be. They are not only admiring the current God in their respective eyes, but they are also laying the groundwork for keeping it that way as their relationship progresses.

The answer to the question of why a woman with God in her eyes is not about the prospect of finding true love. It is not about fulfilling the romantic fantasies of either the man or the woman. It is not about being blessed with the reality of our dreams coming true. These are secondary to the woman being positioned to live up to her divinely ordained potential. Just as God made her as a physical and a spiritual being; a woman with God in her eyes is like a flower that is blooming into a beautiful person that leads God to self-boast, “It is good!”.

But there is one more thing we need to address with respect to the notion of a woman with God in her eyes. That one thing is “what about a MAN with God in his eyes?”

Ooohhh! Excited to hear the other side of this story. I appreciate knowing what God in Her Eyes truly embodies. It is something to have it going on in one area, but not truly knowing what your purpose is in life. Hopefully this can help us in finding what really matters in others. All reading this post, remember to keep God in your eyes. GOD BLESS YOU!!
