The Feminine Power

I have seen and heard lately of relationships crumbling.

We live in a difficult world  and yes life can be hard, no doubt, yet there is hope and power to be had, hope in a God who loves us, He offers us a love and power from above, if only we choose to knock, seek, and ask.We too have power in our own decisions and actions we are able to make good and right choices, if only we are willing.

I attended a conference recently and picked up a book , "How to talk so your husband will listen, and listen so your husband will talk" by Rick Johnson

When you purchase a marriage book you can be sure you will be taken to task but hey, I'm up for the task...maybe. 

But what I have read so far is instructive and inspiring. 

I feel a series of blog posts to follow.

but let's start with the power of a woman, we have power my girlfriends, power to build up our man, our homes, our churches, our communities. The power of a woman can light up an entire home or block with love and generosity and good deeds. We too have the power to destroy our men and our homes with a word, a glance, an unkind action, Yes girls we do and I think we know it. 

A quote from another book, Stu Weber, Four Pillars of a Man's Heart

" A woman can so easily crush a man's spirit. With a look. With a word. With a shrug of indifference...her cynicism is utterly emasculating and many times incredibly subtle. Like a fine, thin blade it slices deep, penetrating to the very core of his masculine soul."

I've been there haven't you?

We do have the feminine power which as in all things can be used for good or evil. My challenge for myself and you is; do we recognize that power and do we use it for evil or for good?

We can control our behaviors, our looks, our tongues but are we? 

Let's go forward today and use what we have for good.

To quote " The Help" 

"You is kind, you is smart, you is important!"
We are!

Let's remind ourselves today of the power we can wield !

And let's conqueror today and encourage our men

using that power and influence

for good!
