What kind of woman do you want to become? Who do you look up to and what characteristics does she have that you aspire? For me, I want to be sure of who I am, sure of my purpose, sure that I'm pleasing God. I want to be at peace inside.
God promises us that we don't have to be the kind of women who are constantly looking around, trying to find something else to fill us. Trying to work to please God. Trying to prove something to ourselves and everyone around us. We don't have to feel lost or alone. We don't have to do it all on our own.
NO, we can be strong. We can be happy. We can trust Him. We can depend on Him. We can know who we are in Him, and therefore be secure and rest. We can pour into others and help one another, because we are steady and wise.
How do we do this? God tells us in Psalm 1; it's so simple. And it all starts with His Word.

~Psalm 1~
Happy is the man who does not follow the advice of the wicked or take the path of sinners or join a group of mockers!
Instead, his delight is in the LORD's instruction, and he meditates on it day and night.
He is like a tree planted beside streams of water that bears its fruit in season and whose leaf does not with. Whatever he does prospers.
The wicked are not like this; instead, they are like chaff that the wind blows away.
Therefore the wicked will not survive the judgement, and sinners will not be in the community of the righteous.
For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to ruin.
