A woman with God

Every woman who walks with God has a story to tell.

Sara will tell you, "Nothing is too hard for God."

Hagar will tell you, "Even in the wilderness God is there."

Rahab will tell you, "God can use anything."

Hannah will tell you, "My God answers prayers."

Ruth will tell you, "It's not over until God says so."

Esther will tell you, "God can turn a nobody to a somebody."

Elizabeth will tell you, "You will give birth to greatness,"

Mary will tell you, "It shall be unto you according to God's word."

The woman with the issue of blood will tell you, "When all fails, God never fails."

Mary and Martha will tell you, "Dead things can live again."

Dorcas will tell you, "God never forgets."

Please don't limit God, let Him be God in your life, and you will have a story to tell in Jesus Christ's mighty name. Amen

Happy Woman's Day, Grandma

There’s nothing like the love of a grandmother. Not every grandma bakes cookies, but it's safe to say that all of them hold a level of wisdom that can guide us all through life. Our grandmas help to mold our parents into the people they are and do the same for us. Happy National Women's Day!

• insulting you, or threatens you with violence,
• harassing you sexually,
• humiliating and degrading you at home or in public,
• controlling how you use your money,
• preventing you from getting or keeping a job, or to see friends or relatives,
• stalking you, by following you or visits you without your permission,
• harming your health or well-being, or
• monitoring your phone calls and telling you where you can and can’t go.
