i love being a woman

Friends… I feel lead to leave my comfort zone. No I am not moving or leaving my job (I love my job). I feel I am supposed to meet with a ministry leader on behalf of hundreds of women who are crying out for more from their church. This isn’t a scandal or an uprise. Just truth spoken in love.

Please be in prayer for me on Wednesday as I meet with this ministry leader about the needs of the Women’s Ministry. It will be candid and I pray that my voice is heard and that the words heard through my voice would be God-led.

It is not about me. It is about YOU… God’s Creation. I thank Him for using me.

“She is the crescendo, the final, astonishing work of God. Woman. In one last flourish creation comes to a finish not with Adam, but with Eve. She is the Master’s finishing touch… Given the way that creation unfolds, how it builds to ever higher and higher works of art, can there be any doubt that Eve is the crown of creation?” … “She is God’s final touch, his ‘piece de resistance.’ She fills a place in the world nothing and no one else can fill. Step to a window, ladies, if you can. Better still, find some place with a view. Look out across the earth and say to yourselves, ‘The whole, vast world is incomplete without me. Creation reached its zenith in me’.” – Captivating, John & Stasi Eldredge

  1. You freakin ROCK!!!! So I think that you are fabulous. I wish that I could be in the womans movement with you..whoops, I mean ministry…wink wink. Thanks for the Blogroll add. But you outted me. Can you Pa-lease put Kristiapplesauce? That way I am still in my comfort zone. Or maybe thatsnotfair…I was thinking about changing it. I really really like your set up. I still can’t figure out how to get mine to look anything like this, so I have to have the lame-o-blame-o thing that you just plug your stuff into. I’m not a smart one like you. I can’t even get my picture up . What the heck? You can delete this.
