Well, He answered that.
"You are a warrior princess. Fiercesome & beautiful as I made you."
Wow.
I know that answer was not just for me, but for every little girl, every young woman, every lady of God. That answer was for You too.
But was does His answer mean for us? It means that we are not to be wilting wallflowers for God. It means that in whatever way, in whatever place He has put us, we are to rise up & make war for God's kingdom, our kingdom. We are NOT to accept the way things are or what the lies tell us about the way things "must be". We have a responsibility to FIGHT! To engage in purposeful prayer, to witness to those brought our way despite our fears, to delve into our Maker's word & to seek His face.
"Fiercesome" is not a light word. Think about what that implies. It means that the sight of us is to strike fear into the very hearts of our enemies! That's huge when you consider how powerful our Enemy is in this fallen world.
God is saying that His presence & strength in us is to be so present, so viable that the Enemy is stricken at the sight of us! That is a HUGE calling!
He must have a lot of faith in us to place such a massive calling on us. The God of the universe has faith in, believes in, US. You & me. There are days I don't think my house plants should have much faith in me. Yet the creator of the stars does.
He says, "I am glorious & righteous & fiercely in love with you."
That means YOU.
