Today is the centenary of International Women's Day - a day of global celebration for women each year on March 8th. Read more about it here.
Women are a wonderful part of God's creation – something he called "very good." Some people say that man was created first, so males are superior. Other's say that after creating man, God thought he could do better than that, so created the woman. The truth is that both men and women are created in the image of God and together reflect that image on earth. We were created to be partners – in life and mission.
Followers of Christ should lead the way in giving honour, respect and dignity to ALL people – including women. It is part of the kingdom mandate given to us by Jesus, which is to be characterised by one thing: LOVE. Men, let's lead the way! How can you honour and celebrate the women in your life today?
