I will refrain from making the "emergency" signal BLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPP, because it's a little TOO annoying, and this isn't a real emergency. If it were, this blog would self-destruct so you could peel yourself away from the computer to deal with the real emergency.
However, today, being International Women's Day, we will focus on the wondrousness of womanhood, and continue with the "C.L.A.P." acronym details tomorrow.
Ahhhh, women, what is it about them? (Me, us?) Is it something in their outward appearance, like their friendly smile and twinkling eyes? Or is it something invisible, but smellable perhaps -- like flowery fragrance? I suppose it could just be their estrogen levels...
I think it is all this -- plus the element we can't really name or claim that makes a woman more than the sum of her parts. It is that she is God's crowning creation! She continues His creation with each child she bears and/or rears. She touches lives, both physically -- using her hands to make meals and fold laundry -- and spiritually -- using her heart to spread joy and mend the broken hearts around her.
Bless you this day and every day, women. Know that you are, at once, uniquely and universally amazing, wonderful, and divinely blessed. Embrace your femininity! Honor it and allow it to be honored and give the glory to God!
