A Chinese Proverb states that “women hold up half the sky.” What a beautiful and true statement.

Ladies, today we celebrate you! (though one day is not nearly enough!) You are the queens and princesses of this world in all your various roles. You are the crowning glory of God’s creation. You are pure power and beauty, grace and wisdom and this world desperately needs you to shine.

There is a great awakening, an unfolding throughout the planet that is finally embracing the splendor of how you are Divinely designed to be. This is your moment. Dance in your essence, release your unique melodies into the chorus, speak boldly from your precious heart, let the earth feel your mighty roar!

Be you. Fully you. As Melissa Etheridge says, “you are more powerful than you know; you are beautiful just as you are.”

King Solomon once said that you are far more valuable than diamonds! (Proverbs 31:10)

Your value is immeasurable!

Ladies, thank you for all that you do and all that you give. You are loved. You are needed. You are cherished. You are wanted.

Happy International Woman’s Day.
