“Woman of God, thank you for being a friend.”
I was straightening up my bedroom recently and found a letter from a dear friend. You know the kind, the friend that will stick with you through it all. The friend that nails the situation perfectly and helps you see things the way they really are. The kind of friend you can trust your very soul with because you have never heard her utter a gossip, so you know your most vulnerable self is safe with her. These are the kind of friends that develop over time as you experience their actions and words. These are the kind of friends my father-in-law has said, in your life time, you are a rich man if you can count true friends on one hand.
Well I reread the letter written by her and the first words that came to mind, and out of my mouth with an affirming “yes” fist in the air were, “Woman of God”. Her words were truthful, easily entreated(kind, but cutting), you know the kind that are selected carefully after praying and asking God if you should share them.
The words in her letter resonated a bit different this time because some time has lapsed, the tough time is fading and healing, and she, a few others and God have been part of that healing. Sooo, all this to say, this “Woman of God” inspired this simple song I would like to share with you. She is a true woman.
Woman of God
Woman of God, seeking His face
Pour out your heart sharing His grace
Woman of God, thank you, for being a friend
Sharing the truth, always in love
Simple kind words, even when they’re tough
Woman of God, thank you, for being a friend
Strength and honor, wisdom and kindness
And a woman, who fears the Lord
Let her be praised, let her be praised
Though others may doubt, you lift me up
You remind me, in God I am free
Woman of God, thank you, for being a friend
Your words are like oil, healing my soul
You are so full and you overflow, on me
Woman of God, thank you, for being a friend
