Welcome to the Wonderfully Ordained Woman Blog

A wonderfully Ordained Woman embodies a harmonious blend of wisdom, grace, and strength. Her ordination from God is not just a title but a testament to her profound dedication to her God, faith, family and community. She serves as a beacon of hope and inspiration, guiding others through her compassionate actions and thoughtful words. Her presence is a living testament to the Holy Spirits power in her life and His nurturing leadership pouring through her to others where empathy and understanding are her primary tools. Whether she is leading a congregation or offering solace ,a wonderfully Ordained Woman leaves an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of those she touches, fostering a sense of unity and purpose. Before being called the daughter of two earthly parents , sister, wife, mother, aunt or even friend, God called her HIS daughter and  Wonderfully and Fearfully created her to be a Woman. BE HER. Healing. Equipped. Responding to the call on her life. 

with all encouragement and love that Christ so richly provides,

WHEN GOD'S HEALING DOESN'T LOOK THE WAY I THOUGHT IT WOULD.

This past week I said see you soon to a good friend. She had years battling cancer. You, wouldn't have known she had this illness, because she was unstoppable. A real witness for Christ. She shared Jesus and her faith with everyone. I had the amazing privilege to work along side her. Although her office was a few feet away from mine we would often email eachother small encouraging words from Scripture. On the days she had treatments sometimes she couldn't come into work for a few days just trying to recover from her treatment. I would message her encouraging words and she often thanked me for reminding her what she knows. My friend was generous and kind. She cared deeply for women and the hurting. She was so amazing, and I felt blessed to know her. She quickly became a close friend. As the days passed I often didn't even associate that disease with her. She was a real life crusader. In her final weeks she was in a hospital and still sharing Jesus with nurses and doctors. Her husband never left her side. The office was so quiet without her. One morning as I was praying for healing I heard the Lord speak to my spirit "sometimes you ask specifically for complete healing and I choose to bring my child home to do that." I'll be the first to admitt, I, didn't want to hear that. So I dismissed the words and went on with my day. The next day she passed at about 1030am. I cried and really didn't know how to process Father God taking her home. For the next couple of days I cried and argued he was supposed to heal her. The Lord simply said "I did." Then, I understood. She's dancing and rejoicing and praising God at his throne. Now I'm just jealous. 😆.  In all seriousness, we are so happy for you Janet but we sure are going to miss you. Give daddy a big hug and kiss for me.
