"Oh, it's quite simple. If you are a friend, you speak the password, and the doors will open." Gandalf |
Description of Photograph: My little baby is all grown up now, but her pictures are still just as adorable as the day she unwittingly posed for them. Here she seems mystified by the camera lens and only seconds later did she belt out her displeasure.
The text by Gandalf reads "Oh, it's quite simple. If you are a friend, you speak the password, and the doors will open." I love this quote because it demonstrates how even the wisest amongst us can be vulnerable to irritating circumstances. Gandalf can intimidate all sorts of goblins, evil druids and dragons but yet, he must bend to the fresh innocence of modest hobbits, in order to obtain his ultimate goal. I think God loves to throw circumstances such as these in our footpaths. It keeps us humble and teaches us that ultimately we need to rely on Him first, not our own strength/opinions.
