THE FEMININE GIFT

 Men are meant to lead their wife and family under the guidance of Wisdom. We know that “Wisdom” means we are talking about The Mother. But what does that actually mean? What does that look like in our lives?

How do we get past “just discovering the abstract presence of ‘wisdom’ as a characteristic attributable to the Mother in Heaven” and instead “discover Her existence and acknowledge Her–otherwise we have not ‘found’ Her. When She declares ‘Whoso findeth me findeth life and shall obtain favor of the Lord.’, it should be taken literally.” (D.S. Divine Parents talk)

How do we “find” Her? And what do we do when we do find her? It’s all still a bit vague.

I’m going to suggest that one very important role of women is to be that “connection” to Wisdom. To be the vessel through which Wisdom can flow into her life and particularly into her marriage. Remember, marriage is The Holy Order of Matrimony. It is the feminine’s domain. All women have as their birthright this connection to “Wisdom” but, as we discussed in my last post ZION pt.2, a Holy marriage becomes the state or condition in which the divine Mother can act.

There are of course, many ways in which the Mother acts in our lives here that we are almost universally ignorant of, but I am talking about a particular way that is only found within a sacred marriage. Ideally, the feminine is deeply connected to the highest vision of what is possible in a union. From this place of profound intuition, she invites the masculine to lead the relationship into a deeper, more meaningful space. A space she is inherently attuned to.

Masculine leadership without the guidance of the feminine heart ultimately leads to the natural man running amuck. This disconnect between the masculine and feminine is a significant part of the dire situation this world is in, not to mention the dire straits in many marriages.

So how does one put these lofty ideals into practice? This idea is one of the things that women need to re-learn about themselves.

Consider this: the female body is literally the conduit between the spirit world and the physical world. She is the portal into the earthly realm. I believe that she is a portal “full stop”. –meaning that she has special abilities and access to the spirit realm.

This ability is known to most of us as “feminine intuition”. We have certainly lost most true understanding of this gift of women at this late stage of the game, even so, we should not disregard it.

The universal way that women receive their intuition is through the body. The female body is a sensitive tool. A barometer of sorts, she has the ability to feel things in a way that men don’t. This is her gift. A woman's feelings are meant to provide her with information. No man can be successful in his leadership of his wife, if she does not provide feedback. A woman’s emotions and feelings are her feedback.

The problem here is that women do not know how to share their emotions in a way that inspires her man to serve and lead her in an even higher, more Godly way. Most women share their feelings by blaming, criticizing, accusing and nagging. That’s not very inspiring for anyone, men or women!

A woman must learn to communicate her feelings in a vulnerable and trusting way. She must go within and do her own work subduing her natural man and yielding to the spirit of God (both of them). She must learn to communicate in a godly way.

This is hard to do. Becoming godly is hard work. There is no room for pride and ego in godliness. Both men and women must do this work if they want their marriage to become holy. Ladies, it’s time for us to step up and play an active role in elevating our marriages. This requires learning new ways of thinking and being, ways that might seem very foreign to some of us.

I hope to explore some of these ways in future posts. If Zion is waiting on us to have godly marriages, let's remember, that marriage is the Holy Order of Matrimony. It’s our domain! Let's take it back from the spiritual darkness that is intent on destroying it and “make marriage great again”! 😉
