To My Little Girl,,,

To my daughter dearest,

By the time you’re reading this, you’ll have encountered society and it’s definition of a true and proper woman. You’ll have heard everything from she belongs in the kitchen to things like she is better suited to be in a “less demanding” career. Well baby girl, don’t pay attention to any of that.

I want you to be the very best you can be. You want to be an engineer? A Pilot? An Astronaut? A Journalist? A Lawyer? A Chef? Heck, if you want to be President go for it!

You will encounter your fair share of criticism and cynics. You will be pulled down from all directions and held down by the very people who you thought would guide you up the ladder of life. You will be mocked and taunted, have your hopes crushed. You will feel like your world is crumbling at your feet and you will cry many tears, but always remember this dear Angel, the woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd but, the woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.

You are a queen, the journey to your throne is  a faith walk. You have to be willing to take opportunities that will pull you out of your comfort zone. When you do that, you find out what you’re really made of and you become the Queen that you are destined to be. Pay attention to that inner stirring that tells you that you were created to be more. Follow where it leads. Trust it.

Dear, don’t treat your destiny like an option or an afterthought. The gifts you hold inside of you are meant to be used. Who you “are” is the reason why you’re here.

Only you have the power to write the script and define who you are as a woman, a Mother, a wife, daughter or sister. Don’t allow someone else’s limitations to control your life.

Above all else, pray. Prayer lays hold of  God’s plan and becomes the link between His will and its accomplishment on earth. Amazing Marvelous things happen, and we are given the privilege of being the channels of the Holy Spirit’s prayer. He who kneels before God can stand before anyone.

I must say I’ve been intimidated by this woman ever since I first read about her.

She’s the one who has it all together, Rises early to prepare for the day,

Always reaches out to help the people around her.

Takes care of her home in an orderly fashion…

She speaks wisdom and kindness into the lives of those around her ,

Works hard and lives each and every day with purpose.

She cares not only about her outside appearance, her beauty shines from within.

She fears the Lord in all her ways and smiles at her future.
