Celebrate Women!
Writing about strong female characters has always been important to me. I believe that we women need to embrace our unique God-given awesomeness! We should take a stand for what we believe and work hard to accomplish our goals and dreams.
This is a very exciting time to be growing up female. When I was little, the princesses in the movies always had to wait for the prince to save them, and women stayed behind while the men went off to war or to work. Now, we have movies and television shows where women play a strong role, and often are the catalyst in saving the world, discovering cures, and launching rockets into space. What a wonderful time to be raising little girls!
Jesus was very pro-woman, and the Bible even says that we are on the same terms with God as men. Who wants to argue with that?
So embrace your femininity, and use your power kindly and in ways that can shape the word into a better tomorrow. You go, girl!
