It's good to be a girl!

I've started reading "The Resolution for Women" by Priscilla Shirer as a part of Green Street's fall Bible Study. This book goes along with the movie "Courageous" and is a companion to "The Resolution for Men." I've just started this book but I love it already.

One of the chapters is called Purposely Feminine. Its a reminder that it is good to be a girl! So many women today have spent so much time focusing on how to be "equal" with men and trying to prove themselves in some way that they've forgotten that God created us in His image as well. If you are a woman, God wanted you to be a woman (not a man!) and thats a good thing!

"You, God's woman, are designed both strong and vunerable. Powerful yet tender. More than able yet willing to yeild. You are smart, wise, capable, equal in worth, and secure in yourself as you relate to others yet content in your God-given role. You are a paradox- a potent mixture that surprises with your controlled energy, who inspires and entices by you mysterious grace, whose lifestyle causes others to reconsider and refocus their presuppostitions, drawing them toward the God who makes woman so rich, deep, and captivating. So purposefully feminine." -Priscilla Shirer

 

Today I am thankful that God created me as a woman! Woman was made in God's image just like man was. We are valuable and precious!

"A place of freedom and peace awaits every woman who aligns herself with God's design. It's up to us to expose the lies of our age and to remind this generation of the true beauty and value of being a submitted woman." P. Shirer
