Woman of Strength

A year has almost gone by since I preached in Moorreesburg for women's month. I remember how nervous I was, how afraid I was especially because I am not from here originally. God reminded me that I am woman of strength because I have Him and so I was inspired to write the poem below. I was asked to give my testimony and then got invited back to preach. Don't despise where and what God has saved you from - He will use you as a sign that wonders and miracles do exist. I hope you enjoy it. God bless.

Woman of strength

In who does your strength lie

In the One who cannot be defied

My Father has kept me

Through all the troubles I’ve seen

And wherever I’ve been -

His hand sheltered me from

The enemy’s plans

Today I can shout out loud,

With You, Lord I can

I can do all things through

Christ who strengthens me

There are times when fear clouds my vision

And then You tell me to make that decision

To be bold and courageous

Because You are with me –

Wherever I go

Now this I know

You are my strength

The One who gives me the power to be called Your daughter

I am a woman of strength because You kept my head above many waters

Thank You, Daddy for Your love and care

My testimony is one I need to share
