Happy Women's day!

 

Tomorrow the 8^th of March the world will be celebrating International Women’s day. Wishing you all a Happy International Women's Day in advance. I know it's amazing to be a woman whether married or unmarried, whether with children or without them, pursuing a high-profile career or dedicated in raising God-loving, respectful children. The world tries to put women in a box and suffocates them with its demands but time and again you have proved you are free spirited and no amount of domination is going to curtail the amazing amount of potential and talents your Heavenly Father has lavished upon you. You have shined and soared despite of your hurdles in life and bounced back from every setback when life threw a curve ball at you. Nothing now or later is ever going to change the fact that you are God's masterpiece and you will always be looked at by your Maker who the Bible says, "fearfully and wonderfully" made you. For Him you will always be a WOMAN - Wonderful, Outstanding, Marvelous, Adorable and Nice. Honor Him with all your, heart, mind, soul and body because He has great things planned to happen through you. Surrender your life to your creator and make only Him as master and center of your life. He is waiting to unleash His power through you, to transform your family, community, society and the world at large.

Allow me to express your worth in the following poem celebrating the fact that womanhood is hailed not just on March 8th of every year but every day of your lives:

Wonderful are your attributes that God has bestowed on women,

Kind, compassionate, loving and caring are the nature that adorns you;

But these are the very same virtues that turns out to be a bane,

Making women naive and vulnerable to human predators.

 

Outstanding are your iridescent shine wherever you are placed,

Don't hide behind the shadow of patriarchy,

Diminishing the gamut of potential your creator has lavished upon you;

Stand up for the dignity you deserve

And be a beacon for the generation you serve.

 

Marvelous is your strength in times of trouble,

Deftly bearing the weight of the burden in raising godly children,

To be responsible adults in a society so vile,

Turning their focus on the Heavenly Father

As their rock and refuge in a world uncertain.

 

Adorable is your passion for your fight for your counterparts,

Who are battered, bruised, looted and humiliated;

Your voice raised in #Metoo or similar movements,

Bringing hope and justice for the voiceless,

Ushering in happiness in a life forlorn.

 

Nice are your balancing acts like a trapeze artist,

Excelling in your family life and career,

Others have chosen to joyfully embrace motherhood and homemaker;

Whatever may be your calling don't forget to honor your Heavenly Creator

Who has called you "Woman" for such a time as this.

As conclusion let me remind you of what the Bible records in the creation story, “So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.". Culture may perpetuate patriarchal society, suppress women's potential but in the sight of God you are precious and full of worth. Uphold the dignity with which He created you and don't settle for anything less as you are God’s image bearers. May God bless you and protect you all.
