We are African women, here in our society, they tell us our greatest achievement is to be married, without which we are not complete. They tell us the value of a woman is "her husband". Without that a woman is a disgrace and a loser, then they tell us we must do everything to stay married so as not to lose our "acquired value."
They say it is a woman that "keeps" her home. Even when it involves her life and peace, they tell her not to be foolish to speak out. They tell her to pray when her husband stops loving her and camps with strange women, they tell her to add fasting, that her laziness in the altar of prayer is the cause of his behaviour. When he goes violent and beats her up, the society including your "son", her pastor tells her to add more prayer points and bear it all like a virtuous woman, it doesn't matter if she dies. No, she died a role model to all women a martyr of submission.
The younger ladies are the worst hit. They believe what the African society has brainwashed them to believe. They have no sign of a life, they don't need it without a man they say. They think a man is their goal on earth.
Oh Lord make them know that they are first complete by themselves and when you made everything on earth you saw that they are good. May they understand that you asked them to dominate the earth, that you have placed in all humans different purposes on earth separate from another. Please make them free themselves from mental slavery, Let them understand that they have a full and complete life to lead.
Make them understand that at the end of their life they will give an account of THEIR LIFE With or without a man. Give them the strength to defile the society negative influences, and take full control of the full and complete life you have gifted them with, carving out a masterpiece of their life. That they will be glad and excited to tell you all about it when you come.
I pray this Oh Lord the love of my life😍 Amen.
