There are many challenges women face: in the family, at the workplace, in caring for children, and due to societal pressures. Women encounter numerous expectations and rejections, which can lead to frustration and break their spirits. However, God has encouraging words for women, reminding them to be strong no matter what they face.
Without women, there would be no world. God created all things, but realized something was incomplete. He declared, “It is not good for the man to be alone.” That is why we have this popular quote “Behind every successful man there is a woman.” The woman referred to here is one who has discovered the power bestowed upon her and knows she can make things work.
Not just an ordinary woman will be able to back up a man and make him successful. Having the belief that you’re the change needed in the family, in the society, and the world will make you stand upright as a strong woman in the Lord.
