An Interview with Jennifer on Esther and Deborah

Today's interview features Jennifer of Inspiredbyjesuslove.tumblr.com which, in her own words, is:

" my inspirational blog promoting positivity, faith and the love of Jesus [and is] my little escape from all the negativity and hate..."

Read on and be inspired by Jennifer's take on Esther and Deborah, her favourite women of the Bible and her revelation of how and why they are still so relevant today.


Who is your favourite woman of the Bible and why? What would you say that modern women can learn from her?

It would have to be Esther or Deborah. Both were strong and brave, and risked their lives to save their people- Deborah was a warrior! Esther not only married a king but saved her people! I would say that modern women could learn that you can have a personal relationship with God and still be a strong woman. As a matter of fact, you will be a STRONGER woman if you put your faith and trust in God like Esther and Deborah did. 

 

Please finish the sentence: I am a Christian woman who is…

I am a Christian woman who is nowhere near finished with her faith journey

 

Please finish the sentence: I am a Christian woman who is not... 

I am a Christian woman who is not perfect

 

Any final words of encouragement?

I would say keep praying, keep looking to God and put your trust and faith in Him. Be patient and enjoy the ride. I’m nowhere close to where I thought I’d be a year ago, but I’ve learned so much in the past year and I’m constantly surprised by what God shows me. Jesus is worth waiting for- be patient :)
