I love this verse: “… in the Lord woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God” (1 Corinthians 11:11-12).
In my home, in business, in the church and in community, I am not in competition with man, nor am I to be independent of man.
Instead, God has brought us together in community in different ways and settings – as husband and wife, as brothers and sisters in Christ, as co-workers, and as servants – all under the head and lordship of Jesus Christ.
Each of us has something unique and valuable to bring to the Kingdom — in our churches, our workplaces, our communities and to the world. And we can learn from and encourage one another.
I am grateful for my brothers and my sisters — each of you! And I am very grateful for the leadership of, love from, and partnership with my husband. 
Thank you, God, for the beauty of your creation and your good plan for us all.
