To the Women After God's own Heart......

To the Women after God's own heart...
There comes a time in every woman's life when she has to take a close look at herself. Not at her circumstance, not at what she did, not how unfair life is, or at who made you do it. She has to just look at herself .

Have you ever admired a woman who has been through changes in her life? Or have you made up in your mind that she is just messed up. Before you make this mistake, take a closer look. A woman who has endured the most unusual life is someone of wisdom, someone who has been chosen by God to go through things that have made her stronger .

Think of all the great women in the Bible: Mary Magdalene , Ruth and Naomi , the woman with an issue of blood, and Esther , to name a few. Mary was a prostitute, a very uneasy woman. But by the time Jesus was done with her, she was His closest follower. Esther was unfortunate in marrying an abusive man, but by the time God was done with her, she had married one of the wealthiest men in the land! .

Women are so quick to beat the next one down instead of trying to hold her up. Before you wonder, ' What's up with her?' ask yourself, 'What's up with me?' That woman could be my mother, sister, aunt, in-law, stepmother, niece, grandmother, great-grandmother, neighbor, friend, or co-worker, etc. That woman could be ME .

Women are the carriers of life, not the channels of death. Let's build and encourage each other, as did Ruth and Naomi . Pass this to all the women in your life.

Encourage and love, forgive and forget, and trust that the woman that receives this will be touched in some way.

Dear Sarah, this is a marvelous post.

'Women are the carriers of life, not the channels of death. Let's build and encourage each other, as did Ruth and Naomi . Pass this to all the women in your life.'

Thank you for speaking about us and to us.

With love, Ramute.

Hi Sarah,
It's true, we never know what all the obstacles we meet are good for and many times they can change into a seed of something new and valuable. Two heads are better than one and we can help one another. "Encourage and love, forgive and forget, and trust that the woman that receives this will be touched in some way."... and she surely will be touched in some way because deeds of love are never worthless. Take care! Petra

that is an incredibly beautiful post Sarah! heart
and i so agree with it!

Mary Magdalene was not the person history painted her... she was a royal princess of the House of Benjamin. Royalty, not a prostitute. Jesus was also a prince, a direct descendant of royalty too. Literally, he was the king of Jews....
