It doesn't really matter what anybody else thinks.
What matters is do I think what I am doing is right?
Does it complete me as a woman?
Or does it leave me feeling incomplete? Unsatisfied?
Teach me to truly give.
What would God have to say about what I am doing? He created me.
Am I being the kind of woman He wants me to be?
Am I exercising all my God-given female capabilities, or just chasing after certain ones in the pursuit of false hopes?
Temporary satisfaction?
Temporary happiness?
My own self-interests?
God, Help me to be strong. Give me insight and direction.
Make me all of what You want me to be as a woman and to leave behind those things that are not for me, or are not good for me.
Show me patience and teach me to be a true lover of life.
Let all my relationships glorify You and truly bless those I encounter and share a piece of life with.
1985
Very insightful poem. I think we all need to ask ourselves similar questions whether male or female.
