Letter From God to a
Woman
When I created the heavens and the earth,
I spoke them into being.
When I created man, I formed him and
breathed life into his nostrils.
But you, woman, I fashioned after I
breathed the breath of life into man
because your nostrils are too delicate.
I allowed a deep sleep to come over him
so I could patiently
and perfectly fashion you.
Man was put to sleep so that he could not
interfere with the creativity.
From one bone, I fashioned you. I chose
the bone that protects man's life.
I chose the rib, which protects his heart
and lungs and supports him,
as you are meant to do.
Around this one bone, I shaped
you.......I modeled you.
I created you perfectly and beautifully.
Your characteristics are as the rib,
strong, yet delicate and fragile.
You provide protection for the most
delicate organ in man, his heart.
His heart is the center of his being; his
lungs hold the breath of life.
The ribcage will allow itself to be
broken before it will allow damage to the
heart.
Support man as the rib cage supports the
body.
You were not taken from his feet, to be
under him,
nor were you taken from his head, to be
above him.
You were taken from his side, to stand
beside him and be held close to his side.
You are my perfect angel.....You are my
beautiful little girl.
You have grown to be a splendid woman of
excellence,
and my eyes fill when I see the virtues
in your heart.
Your eyes......don't change them.
Your lips, how lovely when they part in
prayer.
Your nose, so perfect in form.
Your hands so gentle to touch. I've
caressed your face in your deepest sleep.
I've held your heart close to mine.
Of all that lives and breathes, you are
most like me.
Adam walked with me in the cool of the
day, yet he was lonely.
He could not see me or touch me. He could
only feel me.
So everything I wanted Adam to share and
experience with me, I fashioned in you;
my holiness, my strength, my purity, my
love, my protection and support.
You are special because you are an
extension of me.
Man represents my image, woman my
emotions.
Together, you represent the totality of
God.
So man......treat woman well. Love her,
respect her, for she is fragile.
In hurting her, you hurt me. What you do
to her, you do to me.
In crushing her, you only damage your own
heart, the heart of your Father,
and the heart of her Father.
Woman, support man. In humility, show him
the power of emotion I have given you.
In gentle quietness, show your strength.
In love, show him that you are the rib
that protects his inner self.
Did you not know that a WOMAN is special
in God's eyes?
Send this to all of the wonderful women
you know and bless their day!
Send this to the men you know too. It's a
good reminder for them!
