Captivating
Unveiling The Mystery of a Woman's Soul
Every woman was once a little girl. And every little
girl holds in her heart her most precious dreams.
She longs to be swept up into a romance, to play an
irreplaceable role in a great adventure, to be the
Beauty of the story. Those desires are far more than
child's play. They
are the secret to the feminine heart.
And yet - how many women do you know who ever find
that life? As the years pass by, the
heart of a woman gets pushed aside, wounded, buried.
She finds no romance except in novels,
no adventure except on television, and she doubts
very much that she will ever be the Beauty
in any tale.
Most women think they have to settle for a life of
efficiency and duty, chores and errands, striving to
be the women they "ought" to be, but often feeling
they have failed. Sadly, too many messages for
Christian women add to the pressure. "Do these ten
things, and you will be a godly woman." The effect
has not been good on the feminine soul.
But her heart is still there. Sometimes when she
watches a movie, sometimes in the wee hours
of the night, her heart begins to speak again. A
thirst rises within her to find the life she was
meant to live - the life she dreamed of as a little
girl.
The message of Captivating is this: Your heart
matters more than anything else in all creation. The
desires you had as a little girl and the longings
you still feel as a woman - they are telling
you of the life God created you to live. He offers
to come now as the Hero of your story, to
rescue your heart and release you to live as a fully
alive and feminine woman.
A woman who is truly captivating! |
