Upon my entry in the world of faith, the discovery that women were considered second class citizens left me without words. However, over the course of now 30 years, God's word has confirmed just the opposite. God cannot be put in a box. Neither can His plan for His purposed women be put in a box despite centuries of attempts. For instance, the Samaritan woman was the 'first' evangelist about the arrival of the Messiah, Jesus. In Luke 24, a woman, or women, appointed by Jesus, were the 'first' messengers that Jesus was risen, as He had promised. Both situations included women with perhaps questionable backgrounds. Nevertheless. In the 20th century, despite my 52 years of disbelief in Him, our God and heavenly Father called me out of the darkness of Satan's kingdom in 1995. Thereafter, I was remolded and remade into His representative, and thereafter entrusted with His truth, His word of encouragement - for women - that you were - AND ARE - included in His kingdom plan. Thus, I can undeniably state that our past life does not matter. As such, my message to women of God is that the world is waiting for you to step up and into the place that God assigned.
