I am the Warrior

Warrior women are overlooked, neglected, and dismissed, but press forward in acceptance of their innate value.

Warrior women know abuse, loss, and grief intimately, but they pursue joy with a supernatural strength.

Warrior women learn that to say no is not rude, to speak your mind is not a strike against humility. They set boundaries not only to protect themselves, but to empower others.

Warrior women stand steadfast on their knees. They listen for God’s voice and look for His face in the simple and mundane.

I am blessed to know the mightiest of these warriors, and to be gratefully awakened to my own becoming.
