The midwives feared God and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them... (Exodus 1:17a) From the 2003 Women's Retreat God's Complete Woman Here are some reflections written for the 2003 retreat by Patricia Coleman, a member of the retreat planning committee:
God's Complete Woman
To be God's complete woman is a growing process. And his plan for us all: to know who you are and whose you are and to hasten to his call,
to know that when warfare comes --and it will-- that you should first seek his face, that you should pray without ceasing, for he said, "For you, sufficient is my grace,"
to know that when weeping comes --and it will-- it endures for a night, but joy, oh the joy, when you step out on faith that cometh with the light,
to know that when the battle comes --and it will-- it belongs to the Lord, but also know that it is already won, and that the victory is yours,
to know that when the healing comes --and it will-- it is the Holy Spirit of the Lord, so feel it, receive it, all you women of God: let us rejoice and be on one accord.
To be God's complete woman, let there be no doubt, it comes by his grace and mercy, but not without a price, but "be ye confident of this very thing: that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ!"
