You are a
woman. An image bearer of God. The crown of creation. You were chosen before
time and space, and you are wholly and dearly loved.
Keketso Sephai(my little sister) |
You are sought after, pursued,
romanced, by the passionate desire of your Fiance, Jesus. You are dangerous in
your beauty and your life giving power. And you are needed.
Lerato Sephai( my cousin) |
As a woman who has
been ransomed and redeemed, you can be stronger and tender. You speak to the
world of God’s mercy, mystery, beauty, and His desire for an intimate
relationship. You are inviting; you can risk being vulnerable, offering the
weight of your life as well as your need for more because you are safe in God’s
love.
You labor with God to bring forth life- in creativity, in work, in
others. Your aching, awakened heart leads you to the feet of Jesus, where you
wait on him and wait for Him. The eyes of his heart are ever upon you. The king
is captivated by your beauty.
Lesego Serolong Holzapfel (my role model) |
We need
you. We need you to awaken to God more fully and to awaken to the desires of
the heart he has placed within you so that you will come alive to Him and to
the role that is yours to play.
Londeka Mahaye my friend |
Perhaps
you are meant to be a concert musician or teacher. Perhaps you are meant to be
a neurologist or a horse trainer. Perhaps you are to be an activist for ecology
or the poor or the aged or the ill. You are certainly called to be a woman,
wherever else he leads you.
Linda Sibinda (my friend) |
And that is
crucial dear heart. Whatever your particular calling, you are meant to grace
the world with your dance, to follow the lead of Jesus wherever he leads you. He
will lead you first into Himself; and then, with him, he will lead you into the
world that he loves and needs you to love.
Myself, and friends Phelokazi Sidumo and Lesego Sebatana |
