'You can’t be a minister,' my pastor said, 'because God didn’t chooseany women.'Really, God? You made me a woman but that disqualifies me? Howcan that be?It has taken more than half a century and many difficulties, includingrape and a hope-shattering accident along the way, but our gracious FatherGod has gradually brought healing from those dismissing words.I have learned that, far from women being created to be mereservants and sex objects, God had a very different destiny for His daughters.I discovered that the Hebrew words He spoke to bring forth the first womanmeant 'one who sets boundaries, who is a warrior, a theologian, and an imagebearer', who would partner with the man, to defeat God’s enemy and fill theearth with His Presence.When Abraham’s servant was searching for a suitable bride for Isaac,he asked Rebecca, 'Whose daughter are you? Is there room in your father’shouse for us to lodge this night?' When we know whose daughter we are, wehave authority to invite people into our Father’s house.The challenge now facing us is for men and women to prepare for therematch of the battle that was lost in the Garden of Eden, by learning to workand war together to establish His kingdom and become His bride.Shirley & Paul Diggle have been married for over 50 years and live inVictoria B.C. They have four children and 12 grandchildren. Shirley is ateacher, writer and quilter.
