Whenever a man tries to hold back his tears you know its deep, when he said "when you stand before god and sing for him don't worry trust me you'll be good enough" the tears came hard and fast.

1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. James 4:4 New Living Translation 4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God." Mark 8:36 New Living Translation 36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?

I am watching this 11 years later, and my heart breaks for Kevin. He’s just been going through an acrimonious divorce and child custody case and it breaks my heart to see such a good man, a really good man, tossed aside, because he’s no longer “good” enough. This tribute to Whitney tells us a great deal about him and the kind of man he is. I’m sending a prayer for him to lift him up so he could feel the love and succor him. 🙏

When God gives you the opportunity to connect with someone it is celestial and lasts forever, be it whether you meet for a season, a reason or a lifetime.

There were a lot of people who criticised Kevin Costner after the funeral. When Princess Diana died, every celebrity who had ever been in the same room as her, claimed they were best friends. Kevin Costner is the only celebrity who refused to talk about her. He only expressed his sadness over her death and refused to turn mourning into a PR exercise. Here, he did the same. He talked because he was asked by Whitney's family and it was a beautiful eulogy. I think Kevin Costner has a lot of class and integrity.

I’ve watched the movie “The Bodyguard” many times, and just as I felt the strong and powerful on-screen chemistry that Whitney and Kevin both shared, I feel it again as I watch this eulogy. I can tell that their relationship was very close, very real, and very passionate. So close, in fact, that it saddens me that they didn’t choose to pursue it further after the film completed. They would have been a true power couple, in every sense of the word, and I truly believe that Whitney would have gone on to be even more successful. More importantly, her self-confidence and self-esteem would have skyrocketed, with a man like Kevin by her side, believing in her and encouraging her the way he did. RIP dear Whitney 🙏🏼

@@TheFailedmessiah He never had an type of security or military training for them to consider wanting him to be her "bodyguard" I think it had more to do with the fact that he himself vouched for her for the role when everyone was dead set against it when they had acclaimed actresses waiting to audition for the role. She had no actor training under her belt and The bodyguard was her breakout role that solidified her as an "actress". They asked him to speak because he did have some affections for her that grew over their time of filming but being a good man he was married and so was she so he respected those boundaries and never allowed anyone to take advantage of her.

He waited a year for her, he was there for her every step of the way, never let her fall and he was the one who chose I Will Always Love You for the film because he saw her potential and knew she could do it. This beautiful eulogy is a symbol just how special she was to him and how deeply he felt for her. They were a beautiful couple on the screen. I truly believe that there was something between them. This is an example of what a beautiful friendship and love looks like.

He loved her more than "a friend ". I've heard him say things in interviews that say he was inlove with her and incredibly attracted to her

Thank you Kevin for those words -Whitney was to me the most amazing voice I had ever heard from the very first time I heard her sing and a beautiful woman as well.....Sadly lifes challenges took her home too soon but her memory remains and you paid her a wonderful tribute.

Cepillo 1101 Witney was using long before she met Bobby. It's hard I to know if what you suggest would have been true. Addicts are a tough group to understand. They face a tremendous amount of self doubt and insecurity. The entertainment business tends to turn it's back on the Witneys, Kurts, Belushis when they fall from grace. It's sad and unfortunate.

She may well be alive now if it had panned out that way. I believe Bobby was her ruin. I know she was using before Bobby, but two addicts reinforce each other.

This was done beautifully. What I admire about Kevin is that when he's asked about WH in interviews, i have never heard him say a negative word about Whitney. Instead, he always speaks about her with profound love. He absolutely adored her. He's such a stand up guy and he's very admirable ❤

I have watched this 100s of times. The best going home speech I've ever heard. My Mommy spent her life and mine in music. I lost her 2 years ago, not iny heart. I wish someone had those things for my Mom but she was only famous to us and the Midwest we all toured. In a way when I listen to it and it was for Mommy too. Except it was a Methodist Church and a small one up north. Thank you, Mr. Costner she was a fan too, of you and Miss Houston God will reward you for your strength in GOD and your 💜.

I never heard a man speak the way Kevin Costner speak about Whitney Houston it was just so beautifully said he believed in her when nobody else believed in her to be in the body guard he waited for her for almost a year he really love Whitney his speech was just outstanding and with unconditional love they had something in common they both was raised in a Baptist Church - and Whitney and him share great memories together I just don't like how the people in the church how they was looking at Kevin when he was speaking I think that's very rude and that really not on camera when the whole world is looking but nevermind on that part Kevin Costner is truly a great man and a gentleman he will always have my respect
