Joyce Meyer's struggle to help women all over the globe has won her the title and the recognition that she now has, and this time around she moves forward to tackle the issue of confidence in her book The Confident Woman. Every time the issue of gender difference is discussed, we all understand that women are the most insecure ones. This has always been the way society works, the women are the weak ones while the men are the strong ones. Even though this "rule" has been set aside for a long time now since the modern way of things have proven equality between men and women, a lot of females are still eaten by self-doubt. Why do you believe is that?
The Confident Woman is constructed in an easy-to-comprehend form that is applicable for women of all ages. And knowing Meyer, this book is also patterned to have deep religious context. The Confident Woman starts off with a retelling of the first biblical story, the life of Adam and Eve. Meyer states that both men and women are equal, and that they were designed to complement each other not repel each other. All throughout the book, Meyer picks out passages from the Bible and applies them to the common "Man vs. Woman" mindset that we all have now.
But the book does not only tackle the confidence issues that women gain from their differences with men, but also from their own gender as well. The Confident Woman walks us to the stages of how our society was formed, giving us an overview of what events in the past have led women of the present to feel insecure. Several misconceptions about women are also mentioned, like the fact that women should meet certain standards to be considered acceptable. But what's disappointing is that a lot of women are actually living up to follow these rules.
Also, Meyer discusses about fear and how it is the main influence that pushes women to bow down to the unnecessary rules of society. And she also talks about the only weapon that women can use to win against their fears, a strong belief in God. Because everyone can try to find confidence in themselves as hard as they could, but they won't find i if they don't have confidence in God.
In conclusion, Joyce Meyer once more proves that she is indeed an accomplished writer. Her clear elaboration of the seven characteristics that define a confident woman makes it very easy for any girl, lady, and woman to really realize their true potential. It's funny when you think about why women act the way they do, and how eventually many of these things are brought upon by lack of confidence. The Confident Woman's message is very forward, it is not completely original, but any woman will surely learn to find security in her self.
