I believe without a doubt in my mind that God made women powerful from the beginning of time. Remember the Bible story of Adam and Eve? Well, the story in the book of Genesis, tells us about a serpent (which signified the devil, our enemy). The serpent seduced Eve into eating the forbidden fruit and in return Eve also convinced Adam to eat as well.
Have you ever wondered why the serpent spoke to Eve first instead of Adam? Perhaps Adam would have also fallen for the serpent's seduction, but wouldn't have been so successful in convincing Eve to join him in eating from the fruit. Instead the serpent chose Eve, not because she was weak and would fall for its lies, but because Eve was powerful enough to convince Adam to do what she wanted. Powerful women know what they want and they know how to get others to follow. Don't you agree?
Women have a special gift from God to be great influences in the lives of others. There's a popular saying that goes "The hand that rocks the cradle, is the hand that rules the world." As women we have a responsibility to be good influences to the people around us.
It is important to live intentionally. To look for opportunities to help others. To give hope to other women that are struggling, to provide opportunities for young girls to succeed. As women we have the power to influence others to create bridges that unite and not divide.
Ladies, let's accept one another for who we are. Women of different races, ethnic groups, marital status, education, different professions and social backgrounds. Let's join forces to make a difference in our world. There's power in unity and there's power in you. #GirlPower
