Strong Women
Woman - fashioned from a man's rib who was made from dust. We were put on this earth to accompany man and walk with God. Yes, it was a woman who was tricked into eating the forbidden fruit while her man stood by and watched. From the Garden of Eden through the present, women's roles have changed as we have struggled to find and know our place. The bible clearly puts the man in charge. However, without women, men would not exist.
Women have fought for their rights of equality. Women can now acquire any job, make the same income, or be the sole earning spouse for the household. We can our raise children on our own, own our own homes, and rule our own lives despite having a man's presence. There are many women out there forced to do these things on own their own as the men have simply walked away from their responsibilities as husbands and fathers.
Yes, things have changed since the Garden of Eden. Women can stand on their own two feet. But I believe I am at my best when I have a man in my life. A partner to share things with, to care for and be cared for in return. That partnership allows me to step back and love beyond all faults, cry behind closed doors, and fight battles nobody knows about. I'm not saying that you can't do the same while being single, but for me it's easier to do so when I have an earthly partner as well as a heavenly host. In God all things are possible. I am both thankful and grateful that I am a women equipped with a heart that bleeds, has the ability to cry tears that cleanse, and has a soul that's hungry to connect with my creator. It is here that I am at my strongest earthly potential.
