I think the greatest epiphany I have had is that Godde can actually relate to me as a woman, as a creative woman. I spent my life on the sidelines, a wallflower looking in as I interpreted the men as have the connection to a God that was in their image.  I was always puzzled by the accusation that church has become feminized.  Not from my perspective.  It was all male pronouns and men in leadership.  

When I finally began to understand and accept that God is neither male or female but somehow both, creating us in Godde's image, male and female, I began the shaky steps toward healing.  Just now beginning to feel like i am strong enough to run, I finally find joy in listening to Godde speak to me, a woman.
