We’re still thinking about the beautiful Women’s Month we had.
Minister Beverley McKelly brought Women’s Month to a powerful close on 30 August with a message about identity, truth and remembering the original image.
LET THE VOICE OF TRUTH BE HEARD
Genesis 1:26–27 reminds us that we were created in the image and likeness of God. Before our circumstances, history, wounds, disappointments and even religious experiences told us who we were, God had already spoken.
He said, “It is very good.”
In Luke 13:10–17, Jesus saw a woman who had been bent over for 18 years. Her condition had become her perspective — but Jesus saw her beyond her condition.
Your condition is not your identity.
Your history is not your identity.
Your circumstances are not your identity.
Your identity is in Christ.
Sometimes life, trauma, loss and rejection can bend us over until we forget how to stand. But surviving in that position does not mean God intended us to remain there.
Jesus saw her before she could stand.
There must be movement:
From confinement to consciousness.
From bending to standing.
From believing to becoming.
From proving yourself to accepting yourself.
No more hiding.
Stand up. Look the world in the face. Remember who you were in the beginning.
You were made in His image and His likeness.
Come back to the original position.
Come back to the original image.
Let the voice of truth be heard.
Thank you, Minister Beverley McKelly, for closing our Women’s Month with such a powerful reminder. May the truth we heard continue to speak long after August has ended. ❤️
