Blessed are women

Three of my friends are expecting, and so I've been thinking about babies and loving God.

We are so very blessed to be women. In bearing new life, we are given a very special way in which to contemplate love of God. We can ponder Mary holding her precious son, and put ourselves in her place, transferring the intensity of love we felt for our own new child to this one, who is Lord of All.

Women can explore love of Him in ways which men cannot.

It is a very great gift. We are so very blessed.

Blessed are we

How blessed it is to be female.

God intereacted with Mary in a way humans had never before experienced. He came to her intimately. He became her spouse.

She knew Him.

As a woman I can ponder this experience in ways that men probably cannot.

What a gift; to be feminine.
