Hello my beautiful Sisters in Christ,

On this International Women's Day, we honor the remarkable strength, wisdom, and compassion that women embody across the globe. As Christian women, we are called to exemplify these virtues in our daily lives, drawing inspiration from the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Let's celebrate our unique gifts and qualities, supporting and uplifting each other as we strive to make a positive impact on the world around us.

Here are some tips to help you:

Tip 1: Cultivate Strength in Gentleness

In a world often equating strength with assertiveness and dominance, let us remember the words of Proverbs 31:25, "Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come." True strength lies not only in physical prowess, but also in the ability to be gentle and kind-hearted. Embrace gentleness as a source of inner strength, reflecting the love of Christ in your interactions with others.

Tip 2: Pursue Humility through Education

As Kavita Ramdas eloquently states, being educated allows us to be humble. In Proverbs 3:13, we are reminded, "Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding." Seek knowledge and wisdom through education, recognizing that humility is the cornerstone of true wisdom. Let us approach learning with a humble heart, acknowledging that there is always more to discover and understand.

Tip 3: Show Compassion with Fierce Love

The world is in desperate need of compassion and empathy. Let us embody the words of Colossians 3:12, "Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering." In our interactions with others, let us be fierce in our love and compassion, extending grace and understanding to those in need. Through acts of kindness and empathy, we can reflect the unconditional love of Christ to a hurting world.

Tip 4: Be Rational in Passion

Passion is a powerful force that drives us to pursue our dreams and aspirations. However, it is essential to temper our passions with rationality and discernment. As 1 Corinthians 14:40 advises, "Let all things be done decently and in order." Channel your passions into constructive pursuits, seeking God's guidance and wisdom in all that you do. By aligning our passions with God's will, we can make a meaningful impact on the world around us.

Tip 5: Embrace Freedom through Discipline

True freedom is found in disciplined living, as Galatians 5:1 reminds us: "Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage." Discipline allows us to live with purpose and intentionality, freeing us from the bondage of worldly desires and distractions. Embrace self-discipline in your daily life, seeking to honor God in all that you do. Through disciplined living, we can experience true freedom and fulfillment in Christ.

As Christian women, let us embrace our God-given strength, wisdom, and compassion, recognizing the unique role we play in God's plan. Together, let us support and uplift each other, striving to make a positive difference in the world around us.

As we celebrate International Women's Day, may we continue to embody the virtues of Christ in all aspects of our lives, shining as beacons of light and love in a world in need of hope, as we reflect His light and love the best we can.

In faith & unity,

Tamara
