Whenever I think about being a strong woman I'm reminded of Alicia Keys song, superwoman.
In the bible we're told countless of times that we should be strong. Here's one of my favourite bible verses.
John 16:33
Amplified Bible (AMP)
33I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]
Strength is a requirement as we live out our lives in this unpredictable world. when times get tough we should move, push forward through the rain & tears.
You have caused men to ride over our heads ; we went through fire and through water ; but you bought us out into a wealthy place. Psalm 66:12 KJV
We will go through trouble times, if we go through them and not turn back, at the end of the troubles we will reach a place of wealth.
2When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, and they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.
God promises us that we can go through fire (trouble time, tribulations) but they will not harm us (Isaiah 43:2).
And when we've gone through these troubling times we'll come out into wealth.
For us women, we normally think that strength is for men. However we are all called by
God to be strong during trying times, we are still to look feminine and take care of ourselves beautifully.
I think another thing that we should adopt is to watch people who we tell our problems.
I believe that we shouldn't tell people our problems. This is something I'm still learning.
The person we need to tell our problems to is God.
He won't tell anyone and he is the only person who can solve them.
I'm reminded of a time when I was so depressed and down. I wanted to give up. My moth
er pushed me to hold on. When I did stay, and hold on, things became better.
They only became better because of my prayers to God. God did things for me I could have never imagined.
One of the things I do, is that I smile, look good, even through the trying times. I keep myself feminine beautiful and neat
My one friend said , that a duck glides through water but you'd never guess how hard they paddling with their legs underneath.
So this year is the year of superwoman.
