Beautiful women.

I have watched many women who have learned that God and agape love is not ultimately found in perfect protection from their parents. They can't protect their beautiful daughters from being attacked and used and abused by evil men and women 100% of the time.

Their hometown school and town is not always 100% affirming. These can be critics and cynics and competitors waiting and watching for failure and remembering a girl's worst day.

Storms come for smart, winsome lovely women. In some countries they are murdered for wearing their scarf wrong. In my country they are abused, attacked, laughed at, mocked and slammed against walls and thrown down stairs. They are turned into sex objects and jokes by a male dominated culture. This causes spiritual, emotional and psychological storms.

There are women who find that agape love, not Eros love is the real answer. God is agape. He is Spirit. Those who worship Him don't worship in just one location, but in a spiritual location. The place of spirit and truth. Agape has the power over every storm. Money, power and sexual attraction have limits. Agape is security forever.

Many of these beautiful women have found Agape love and become winsome for God. These have been forgiven for their own bad choices and have been willing to forgive those who have failed them. Once Jesus was being loved on by a sinful woman and he said her beautiful love for him was because she had been forgiven much that she love much.

To all the beautiful hearted women who have blessed my life I just want to say thank you.

John 4.

15 The woman *said to Him, “[d]Sir, give me this water so that I will not be thirsty, nor come all the way here to draw water.” 16 He *said to her, “Go, call your husband and come here.” 17 The woman answered and said to Him, “I have no husband.” Jesus *said to her, “You have correctly said, ‘I have no husband’; 18 for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; this which you have said is true.” 19 The woman *said to Him, “[e]Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and yet you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one must worship.” 21 Jesus *said to her, “Believe Me, woman, that [f]a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. 22 You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, because salvation is from the Jews. 23 But [g]a time is coming, and [h]even now has arrived, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be [i]His worshipers. 24 God is [j]spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” 25 The woman *said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming (He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us.” 26 Jesus *said to her, “I am He, the One speaking to you.”

Luke 7

36 Now one of the Pharisees was requesting Him to eat with him, and He entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. 37 And there was a woman in the city who was a [w]sinner; and when she learned that He was reclining at the table in the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster vial of perfume, 38 and standing behind Him at His feet, weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, and began kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume. 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet He would know who and what sort of person this woman is who is touching Him, that she is a [x]sinner!”

Parable of Two Debtors

40 And Jesus responded and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he [y]replied, “Say it, Teacher.” 41 “A moneylender had two debtors: the one owed five hundred [z]denarii, and the other, fifty. 42 When they were unable to repay, he canceled the debts of both. So which of them will love him more?” 43 Simon answered and said, “I assume the one for whom he canceled the greater debt.” And He said to him, “You have judged correctly.” 44 And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You [aa]gave Me no kiss; but she has not stopped kissing My feet since the time I came in. 46 You did not [ab]anoint My head with oil, but she anointed My feet with perfume. 47 For this reason I say to you, her sins, which are many, have been forgiven, for she loved much; but the one who is forgiven little, loves little.” 48 And He said to her, “Your sins have been forgiven.” 49 And then those who were reclining at the table with Him began saying [ac]to themselves, “Who is this man who even forgives sins?” 50 And He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
