How to Become Bold in your Everyday Life

Inside: God has led me to see that in the midst of looking for superheroes and superwoman. I’ve missed bold women right around me.

I always thought bold girls were ones with capes and superpowers. Lightning speed or abnormal strength, they stood up to evil and made the world a better place by their public display of their superhero qualities.

Being bold was a woman who had an agenda and would not let anyone or anything thwart her plan. Even if she encountered a roadblock or detour, Miss Bold would use tactics and maneuvers until she saw her scheme completed.

God has led me to see that in the midst of looking for superheroes and superwoman, I’ve missed bold women right around me. Do you know there’s a superhero living next door?

I’ve been looking for a superhero cape, but in reality what I need is the superhero God. #BeBoldGirl @RachelBritton Share on X

Boldness in the Everyday

My Christian friend, Kelly, raises her children in a culture that challenges her values and beliefs. She spends her days encouraging her children to cling to God and become more Christ-like.

At night as her children lay their heads on their pillows, she continues to fight on her knees in prayer. Although demands to follows the norms of society threaten to overwhelm this mother and spew lies that she isn’t doing enough, I see a bold woman who relies on the full strength of God being with her.

The Single Bold Girl

Then there is the single Christian woman, Holly, who is looking for Mr. Right. I see a bold girl who saves herself from one-night stands and ruffling the sheets of her marriage bed. Although attitudes around her give the impression it doesn’t matter to her marriage or her future children, she holds fast to the commands of Truth.

She believes pre-marital sex will only bring unneeded baggage and grief into her marriage covenant.

This single woman has decided to stand out in a culture where she could just fit in with the status quo.

The Grieving Bold Woman

Finally, my friend, Linda, who lost her significant one to the claws of cancer. She continues to live with her eyes set on her heavenly destination. Even though a handful of her widow friends have become bitter and drifted away from God, she witnesses and loves even in her grieving.

Here’s the thing, Linda knows that God has a plan for her. She will be reunited with her husband again in Heaven. She believes the pain she currently feels is insignificant to the reward she will receive.
