Honouring Women

 Woman is the companion of man, gifted with equal mental capacity...

If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior...

If non-violence is the law of our being, the future is with women...

Mahatma Ghandi

Today, March 8 is International Women’s Day; it is a day that is celebrated in many countries around the world to recognize women’s achievements throughout history and across nations. It is also known as the United Nations (UN) Day for Women’s Rights and International Peace.The UN Theme for this year is A Promise is A Promise: End Violence against women.

All over the world many events are held to celebrate this day, in some countries it’s a national holiday. In some countries it is similar to Mother’s Day where children buy gifts for their mother and grandmother or Valentine’s Day where men buy roses and small gifts for their spouses.

What are you doing to celebrate being a woman today? Here is a suggestion; honour another woman today.

Honour another woman by:

Mentoring a Girl – Girls are the women of the future, they are the future mothers, aunties, grandmothers and teachers however so many of our girls are neglected, abandoned, abused and taken for granted. Honour a future woman by mentoring a girl, whether she is a family member or not.

Show appreciation to a woman that has made an impact on your life in a positive way – This could be your mother, sister, teacher or friend. Give the person a handwritten thank you card, or buy a small gift for this person today. Honour a woman by letting her know that you love and appreciate her for her positive impact on your life.

Do something kind for a woman in need – This can be a kind word, a smile, a meal, a few dollars to assist with a need or you may pray with someone. Honour a woman by letting her know you care about her today.

To all the women reading today, I honour you!!!

Let’s Pray,

Father, Creator of this world, I thank you today for all the women who are reading today. Father I pray a special blessing over their lives today, I pray for a life of peace, contentment, joy and happiness for all of them.

In Jesus Name

Amen 

Have a God Filled Day Ladies
