“Our calling is to let go of our crown of gems (our puny personal ambitions, desires, and agendas) in order to pursue our true identity: His crown of thorns (the will of our King). By doing so, we discover the value, joy, and fulfillment He always intended for those who call Him Lord” (pg. 19). Kim Meeder writes a very poignant book on what it means to stand for what we truly are called for and to move away from what we may desire. We are challenged to avoid being “princesses of entitlement” and focus on being “warriors of encouragement”. I felt challenged as I read through this book because I was easily able to identify with her message. Throughout the book she provides one or two sentences facts under the subtitles in each chapter, each sentence was about God which provided essentially wrapped up why we need to follow God and why He deserves our love, faithfulness, and trust. “Only God is worthy of our trust. Our King is forever faithful and unchanging” “Little sins allowed in our lives, over time, will cause great damage” “A warrior answers God’s call to give Him whatever she can, no matter how small” This book is a great resource for women who want to be challenged to step outside their comfort zone. Who want to be challenged to live a radical life focused on serving God —fiercely.
