when I think of a “Kingdom Chick” I see a woman who knows who she is in Christ and refuses to settle and accept less than what God has for her. A woman who is confident about who God says she is and knows that she’s been called, qualified and validated by God Himself and is not a slave to other’s opinion nor crave their validation. She’s comfortable in her own skin not arrogant, but in the assurance that “she’s fearfully and wonderfully made” (Ps 139:14). And her existence was a necessity that even after creating the man, God said, “it is not good for the man to be alone. I will create a helper suitable for him” (Gen 2:18). The story of creation was not completed until she was created, so we can say that Creation necessitated her very existence. Her contribution is priceless.
I also see a woman who’s not yet sure of who she is in Christ and so she may settle and accept less than what God has for her. A woman who is not so confident in the call of God on her life so she lives by other’s opinion of her and crave their validation. She’s may not be comfortable in her own skin and so she compares herself to the world’s version of who she is and should be all the while overlooking her own God given uniqueness, beauty, talent and gifts and ignoring the fact that she can search the world over and will not find another like her and she’s fearful to occupy the very space she was created for.
Kingdom Chicks come from all walks of life really, they play many roles in the lives of many different people. She’s a single mom working two jobs to take care of her children and still makes time to read them a bedtime story, pray and tuck them in at night. She’s the young newlywed unsure if she has what it takes to be the Godly wife and mother modeled by her own mother and other women in her family. She’s the first in her family to attend college, graduating and is starting her dream job. She’s the woman married for decades facing the hardships of a difficult and painful marriage. The woman who’s newly widowed after losing the love of her life. Or after years of marriage, he made the choice to leave for someone else, someone younger. The woman starting her second act by returning to school now that her children have left the nest and started their own family. Or maybe she’s the woman who is dissatisfied and disappointed with where she is currently in her life and thought her life would look differently than it does now.
