A Divine Purpose

WOMEN RISKTAKERS by Patricia Bailey depicts the lives of some of the greatest women of strength in the Bible. We take a look into the lives of Rahab, Esther, Hagar, Jochebed, Hannah and many more. Each of the women portrayed took risks by going outside of the box. They stood their ground often times when the end result could have been their death. Their faith in God was all they needed to persevere. They allowed themselves to decrease while the Christ in them increased. You don't have to be born into wealth or be a celebrity to be used by God. Rahab a prostitute, Esther, an orphaned Jew, and Hagar, a servant, were all used by God in a very profound way. Some of the obstacles they encountered made the trials and tribulations I endure appear trivial in comparison. The faith, courage and strength the women displayed are undoubtedly characteristics all women should strive to possess. WOMEN RISKTAKERS is an inspiring book that encourages you to listen to God and allow him to lead you on your pathway to success. Reading about these powerful yet humble women of the Bible enabled me to see that I, too, can rise to greatness. By stepping back and removing self, you then allow God into your heart, and he will lead you to your divine purpose. His plan may not be the plan you have for your life, but undeniably it is the best plan. Written in an easy to understand format without being preachy, WOMEN RISKTAKERS can assist you in reaching your highest potential if you allow it to. Are you willing to take the risk?
