THE STRENGTH OF A WOMAN

Needless to argue that the woman a man has as his pillar will either make or mar him. No man or group can stand the strength of even the weakest woman, no matter her size. Most people believe this fact thinking it's because of their sex organ, but I believe it is how they were created; it's simply their distinctive feature.

A woman seems to be very weak because her tears are not far fetched in her eyes, but she is always very strong in her weakness. The more her tears, the stronger she becomes, just like how scorching the sun will become after a heavy downpour. Women are like water; they are daring, persistent, strong, focused, very intelligent, just to mention a few.

Memorable Quote of Great Women:
Margaret Thatcher – Chemist, Barrister, Politician: “Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren’t.”

Susan Brownell Anthony: “Men – their rights and nothing more; women – their rights and nothing less.”

Yemi (Writer/Editor): Being a woman is the biggest career any human being can have. You are criticized even before attempting.

Isabella Baumfree: “You may hiss as much as you please, but women will get their rights anyway.”

Margaret Higgins: “When motherhood becomes the fruit of deep yearning, not the result of ignorance or accident, its children will become the foundation of a new race.”

But fortunately and unfortunately, most women don't know how strong there are, so they are mostly likened to be an eagle which condescends to become a hen. Some use their strength unwisely, settling for crumbs when they can have the full loaf.

A woman made Adam to eat the forbidden fruit - Eve.

A woman saved the Jews from massive death - Esther.

Only the woman in the family of Elimelech survived when they went to sojourned in the country of Moab - Naomi.

Women caused Saul with their songs to hate David - King Saul's subjects.

A woman rewrote Jacob's destiny with an advice - Rebecca.

A woman made Elijah with all this anointing to flee - Queen Jezebel.

A woman made Jesus to weep - Mary.

Jesus used a woman to get the Samaritan people - woman of Samaritan.

Jesus has only a biological mother - Mary.

Mary Edwards Walker – surgeon - crossed enemy lines to treat wounded civilians during the American Civil War.

Isabella Baumfree - escaped slavery in 1826 and was the first woman to take a white man to court to recover her child. Became a vocal supporter of women’s rights and often spoke passionately about women’s rights, abolition, prison reform and capital punishment (which she was against). She also helped recruit black men for the Union Army during the Civil War.

Mary Mitchell Slessor - stopped the killing of twins in Nigeria.

And so many others.

The strength and uniqueness of a woman can be compared to no other. Women have to constantly deal with a lot of issues emotionally, physically and spiritually yet still handle them with ease. I can tell you that the things women deal with on a daily basis are things that require divine wisdom and strength.

There is nothing a woman cannot achieve, because to be a woman is a miracle, and a gift to humanity.

Now what are you waiting for?

Don't settle for the less, it's not in your nature to fly, you soar.

Get your visions aright, activate your feminine aura,  and go achieve all the impossibilities. Yes, because it's in you, for you are a woman!

Share with every woman in your life, and trust me, the world would be a better place if every woman can be a WOMAN.
