| When I created the
heavens and the earth, I spoke them into being. When I
created man, I formed him and breathed life into his nostrils.
But you woman, I fashioned after I breathed the breath
of life into man because your nostrils are too delicate.
I allowed a deep sleep to come over him so I could patiently
and perfectly fashion you.
Man was put to
sleep so that he could not interfere with the creativity.
From one bone I fashioned you. I chose the bone that
protects his heart and his lungs and supports him, as
you are meant to do. Around this one bone I shaped you.
I modeled you. I created you perfectly and beautifully.
Your characteristics
are as the rib, strong yet delicate and fragile. You
provide protection for the most delicate organ in man,
his heart. His heart is the center of his being; his
lungs hold the breath of life. The rib cage will allow
itself to be broken before it will allow damage to the
heart.
Support the man
as the rib cage supports the body. You were not taken
from his feet, to be under him, nor were you taken from
his head, to be above him. You were taken from his side,
to stand beside him and be held close to his side.
You are My perfect
angel. You are My beautiful little girl. You have grown
to be a splendid woman of excellence, and My eyes fill
when I see the virtues in your heart. Your eyes - don't
change them. Your lips - how lovely when they part in
prayer. Your nose, so perfect in form, your hands so
gentle in touch. I've caressed your face in your deepest
sleep; I've held your heart close to mine.
Of all that lives
and breathes, you are the most like Me. Adam walked
with Me in the cool of the day and yet he was lonely.
He could not see Me or touch Me. He could only feel
Me.
So everything I
wanted Adam to share and experience with Me,
I fashioned in you: My holiness, My strength, My purity,
My love, My protection and support. You are special
because you are the extension of Me.
Man represents
My image, woman My emotions. Together you represent
the totality of God. So man - treat woman well. Love
her, respect her, for she is fragile. In hurting her,
you hurt Me. What you do to her, you do to Me. In crushing
her, you only damage your own heart, the heart of your
Father, and the heart of her Father.
Woman, support
man. In humility, show him the power of emotion I have
given you. In gentle quietness show your strength. In
love, show him that you are the rib that protects his
inner self.
