March 8th is celebrated across the globe as International Women’s Day. The day is set aside to draw attention to the worldwide struggle for women’s rights and freedom from oppression. Sadly, throughout human history, women have suffered disproportionately in all cultures and epochs. But the world’s attempts to free or empower women have often led only to new forms of bondage. The true women’s liberation movement was inaugurated by the Lord Jesus when He came proclaiming the Kingdom of God. By considering four women’s encounters with Jesus, we can see the power that can be gained by giving Him our heart, body, mind, and entire life.
