I know the Lord — and He will make a way




[ Print’s FREE here: ]



… your voice, your heart, is always wanted and never, ever forget: you always belong.

Christ didn’t degrade women in His talk, but He made women heroes in His stories. That’s how God loves women with His words.

Promise you’ll never forget this either? God first revealed Himself to a woman as the God Who Sees — because God needed every woman to know that she is seen, she is known, she is beloved.

God made the answer to the world’s very first problem, the one of aloneness — to be a woman. And every woman is here not to one-up one another — but to help one another up.

Just promise — that you’ll never, ever forget:

God made sure every girl born knew she was never less than.

Girls are a whole world more than pretty faces & pretty hair — they do hard & holy things & change the whole world.

Rise, Esthers, & don’t be afraid to risk like a girl, be fiercely fearless like a girl & change the world like a girl.

And today? We want nothing but Jesus — because we’re brave enough to believe He is our everything.



[excerpted from our little Facebook family … come join us each day?]


Dare to fully live!
