Agressive women are winners

I like the story of Leah who wanted a husband so bad, she took over the wedding tent of her sister and became the mother of Judah.



Song of Songs (which I was not allowed to read until I was 18) shows a very agressive woman. Also Proverbs 31, etc.



Go get them girls!!!



Shalom

I believe a more appropriate word is assertive. I agree the bible gives a few examples of assertive women which today's woman can aspire to.

This is one of the few posts you have made Happy 222 that I really agree with wholeheartedly. No offense intended.



Being overly cautious or reserved is a symptom of being doubtful or fearful. Polite terms for that would be "cautious" or "reserved"> Both of those things are wise as long as they do not go too far.



My wife will be a WOMAN OF FAITH and she will not take long to make up her mind that I am what she wants. She has enough knowledge of the word and trust in the word - that she will know what she is getting with me and how she will be loved.



And beyond those truths - there is no bigger compliment than a lady saying "Hey, I like you."

Actually, of course, there is a bigger compliment. And that is when a woman lets him know that she loves him and trust him enough to be his wife.:glow:

Good post this!



I agree with your point.



You may have gotten it wrong with Leah though. Replace her with Hannah and you have it.

And lets not forget about Ruth who spent the night at the feet of Boaz.



All aggressive people seem to enjoy more of the Fruits of the Spirit.



Men need encouragement.

Amen



Matthew 11:12 (KJV)

12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

For anyone needing an explanation of what Mathew 11:12 means - below is a good one



Today, as in the days of John the Baptist, Satan is opposing the preaching of the Gospel, and only those who are violently resolved to receive God's best will have it (James 4:7). This violent resolve is the precise ingredient missing in many people's lives.



Life For Today Study Bible Notes

The phrase "suffereth violence" in this verse is translated from the Greek word "BIAZO," and it means "to force, i.e. (reflexively) to crowd oneself (into), or (passively) to be seized" (Strong's Concordance). The same Greek word was used in Luke 16:16 and was translated "presseth" there

IE: You snooze - you loose.



I have missed out on one or two good ones that would have probably saved me a lot of grief - had I taken hold of those ladies when I had the chance.



Same thing goes for the ladies. If you do not give a guy some encouragement - he's likely to find someone who will.



It's not all God's will. We have to do our part.
