Warrior Princess Ponderings

From heartless taunting to treasured title... 


There is a long story behind how a paper crown could put such a smile of contentment and assurance on the face of this twenty-seven-year-old woman.. and one day I hope to tell it.

For now, there is only time to say:

"The LORD is my strength and my song,
     and He has become my salvation;
this is my God, and I will praise Him,
     my father's God, and I will exalt Him.
The LORD is a man of war;
     the LORD is his name."
                              - Exodus 15:2-3

"I am my Beloved's and His desire is for me."
                              - Song of Solomon 7:10

"You keep him in perfect peace
     whose mind is stayed on you,
     because he trusts in you."
                              - Isaiah 26:3

"For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, 'Abba! Father!'"
                              - Romans 8:15

I am so thankful for my adoption into the family of God.
Knowing my Heavenly Father helps me to better know myself and recognize that I am a daughter of the King!
I am, and will always be, His little warrior princess.
