Women of faith

When my daughter approached me with the idea of having her weekly articles made into a book, I thought it was a great idea, but I never imagined it would have such an impact in the Work of God. This was God’s sign of how much He wants to use women nowadays. Until now, we’ve had some women pastors, but there has always been an uncertainty as to what their role is in the church. We believed their role was to be less noticeable, discreet, subtle…
The importance women had during the building of the kingdom of Israel leads us to imagine them today full of the Spirit and working toward the construction of the Kingdom of God.
Women play a very important role in the Work of God, not only in regards to being zealous for the church, but also by glorifying Him through their character and testimony. Many women are looking for other women that they can look up to and follow. Unfortunately, many end up following celebrities that are a reflection of indiscretion.
“As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout, so is a lovely woman who lacks discretion.” (Proverbs 11.22)
God wants to use you, so that through you, He can reach out to other women, save them and use them as instruments in His hands. If you have not read the book Better Than a New Pair of Shoes don’t waste any more time. Even if you don’t like reading or if you don’t have time to read, make an effort. What matters is that through this book, you allow God to mould you.
I feel immense gratitude to hear that thousands of women, all over the world, have been blessed by this book. And yet, I would be even more pleased if more women were putting themselves at the Holy Spirit’s disposal to do His Work.
