Let us be like the courageous women who fill the pages of scripture with stories of perseverance and resilience, who pushed past cultural barriers, hostility, silence, darkness, and refused to allow their past to define them. Let us be women of courage, influencers, who will partner with God to fulfill His purposes.

As leaders, we need to stand upon the promises of God for they are our protection and where we find the strength to persevere. For when we do, and we lean into His presence, we can be the balm to the walking wounded. We can help soothe the soul of the scorched. We can help extinguish the flames that threaten to consume the weakened. For in Him, His power and promise, we can do all things.

I believe this is where leadership becomes its strongest: not when we have every answer, but when we keep trusting the One who does.
