To the women in my life- online and offline, known and unknown, past, present and future, single and married, struggling and thriving, student and worker, in ministry and in the cooperate world, I hope this finds you well.
The beginnings of womanhood are strange and different from what we know as children. We all know the challenges adulthood brings but little do we know about the luggage womanhood brings.
The myriad of health issues, the challenge of navigating relationships, the struggle to find your voice in a world of noise.
The courage to own your authenticity, the power to harness your emotions, the grace to birth in this world what never was.
In a world that is constantly dictating how a woman should dress, talk, act and be, I pray we find the patience to sit with God's word and find His original plan for the creature Adam named "woman".
I pray that you will not be a woman who is at ease in Zion.
That there be a sense of urgency in your life to accomplish all that God has called you to do.
There are far too many problems on this earth for you to be living as lackadaisical as you are.
I pray you find your unique voice and expression.
That you do not work hard to prove a point or to outdo your peers but to see the course of the Kingdom advanced.
I pray that God blesses you with people.
A brigade of like-minded women to laugh and cry with
A strong support of godly men to allow you fly.
Special leaders to facilitate your growth.
A committed followership to disciple
May your life ooze ease, may it carry the fragrance of the Godhead, may your struggles tell of God's amazing grace.
Your faith steadfast, your love fierce
Don't be afraid to dream but most importantly don't be afraid to do.
May stories be told of how you stood your ground and fulfilled plans people thought were impossible.
The rest of us, I mean the whole world is waiting for your creative genius to explode and take this world by surprise.
When we talk about biblical womanhood, may your name be mentioned.
From your sister with love💜
