Our Vindicator
I often say that Psalms are right after Job, because after getting beat up in Job, you need some psalms. God only knows what this man was going through, how hard it must have been. He lost his whole family, had boils all over his body, and all of his friends turned against him. Yet what does Job say? God is a God of justice.
Job knew who he was. He knew his own heart. He knew what he was doing. He knew his motives for doing what he was doing. He didn't really care what others thought about him. He knew that his Vindicator was God. He didn't have to defend himself, because if he needed to be vindicated, God would do it. It might take a year or five years or ten years, but sooner or later God would come around and vindicate him. If he didn't know that God was his Vindicator, he would have had to try to vindicate himself.
Pray: Lord, You are my Redeemer and Vindicator. You know my heart, and Your approval of my life is all that I need. Help me to not listen to others' judgments. Amen.

About this Plan
Women are a precious gift from God to the world. You are creative, compassionate, intelligent, and, according to the Bible, equal to men. But years of abuse and wrong views of women have caused many of you to lose the confidence God wants you to enjoy. You may feel that you're somehow "less" than men. Less valuable. Less worthy. The truth is, you are very valuable to society, but more importantly to God. God wants you to be courageous, respected, admired, promoted, sought after, and most of all, loved. And you can be! This daily devotional will guide you toward a confident life filled with love, laughter and His acceptance. Write on it. Highlight it. Make the journey your own.
