Today with all that women are faced with, it's hard for many to believe that God loves them. They are taken for granted so many times, and this leaves them feeling empty and used. It seems that we live in a society that wants everything instantly, even in relationships.
Initially, we need to get to know one another. And through the years, we need to let God renew our love for one another. What has happened to old fashioned love, with mutual respect and not taking each other for granted?
"Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come." Proverbs 31:25
Every woman wants a man who will love her and hold her close to his side. She wants to be told that she is special, not just in the bedroom, but in the presence of others as well. She needs to draw strength from her mate. This strength helps her know that she is his and that she doesn't need to worry about another woman.
Every woman needs to have dignity, so she can hold her head up high and know she is somebody. How sad it is to see a woman that has no self-esteem. If our spirit is broken, then we are like a fragile piece of china that will break very easy. It is hard to get a person back to where they once were, if they have been broken in spirit. God did not intend for any human being to do this to another human being. Yet, it happens so often every day.
Our purpose in this life is to be loved, to be told we're special, to find out what our purpose is, and to do something about it.
What part does God play in helping women find their role in life?
1. He can be our friend when we're lonely.
2. He can give us the wisdom we need.
3. If we need guidance, He will help us in all situations.
4. He will point us in the direction we should go.
God wants what is best for us. He never forces Himself upon us, but He will help us if we let Him. We will begin to look in the right places and talk to the right people. Things will begin to fall into place.
