God’s Masterpiece (Woman)

By Richard Dexter Russell

My book examines women's thoroughly and fairly; by the word of God, it is this fairness that makes the novel so riveting and thought-provoking, and so perfect for triggering discussions. This is a great inspiring book, of the creation of women by God in human form, God could have taken anything to create the apple of his eye but he chose her. That’s why she is His Masterpiece of Creation, if you want something to change your life, this book will wake you up and think.

The author is true to his determination not to stack the deck for readers; the ending is deliberately ambiguous, with allegorical overtones, leaving readers to decide what they want to believe. I have done my research and know what you’re looking for. MY MANUSCRIPT is CHRISTIANS BASE genre of included comparison titles to give you a feeling of the book and show I know my target audience. Dear readers and friends, it was so wonderful to share this story of what God gave me to write about in the creation of woman in our life with you. Many years ago I woke up one morning with a feeling that told me I should start putting the things about His Masterpiece of creation on paper. I had no idea how to do it. I just started by jotting down the main highlights of all the things based on my experience that happened in my life over the years. Then I asked the Holy Spirit to inspire me as He inspired the people who wrote the Bible. This is why this story I call “God Masterpiece of creation woman” It amazed me how i never knew how to write and especially something or someone to write until now.
Every day when I sat down in my lazy boy to write, or laid in bed, the words just flowed. It was an amazing experience, I know that this is not my doing; it is the Lord’s doing. I know a few more stories will come as God continues to do His work. Specifically, this is why I think you (the reader) would like my novel. I have taken time to carry out my research on what you seek or need to know.
I have also included comparison titles to give you a feel of the book to prove that I know my target audience.

I am an interesting and a likable person judging by my character. I want the readers to use the blank pages to take notes and tell me about each paragraph after each STORY.

I do not have any publishing credits, but experience in the subjects presented in the manuscript, included is a short biography. I’ll also let you know if I’m working on something else to prove to you that I am not a one-hit-wonder. But I won’t pitch that novel here.

About the Author

This book is an introduction to the subject of God Masterpiece woman. Everything you do in life is a choice, you choose to purchased and read this book. Now you have two choices to read or not to read that’s the choices, but it’s yours to choose.

I chose to write this not to please man but God, Jesus and his mother (woman), because being deserving is to share is not a state you reach, it’s a choice you seek. Being proud of who and what you are is not a goal, it is a choice. It’s my choice to have a voice in the world (for me) (about her)

God could have taken anything to create the apple of his eye but he chose her. That’s why she is His Masterpiece of Creation, if you want something to change your life, this book will wake you up and think.

Woman—The Life of All Things

She is called Mother Nature because she balanced humanity.

She is the sun, the moon, and the stars; thus, she is

light that shines in all ages and all nations.

Womens has the divine wisdom with

the aid of the almighty God.

"The eye with which I see God is the same

eye with which God sees me.

—Meister Eckhart, Thirteenth-Century German Mystic"

INTRODUCTION

My dear readers, you will learn why woman is God’s masterpiece. For some, my words might seem as faint as the light from distant galaxies, but I’ve passed my younger years traveling between the stars learning and unearthing secrets, and I now share God’s wisdom about his amazing creation—woman.

Some words have simple definitions, others have precise meanings, and some simply sound more beautiful when spoken. Words are more than just a meager compilation of letters; they form sentences, paragraphs, stories, and books. Words are a powerful form of communication for anyone who wants to share a message with others. Of the many thousands of words I have put together in this book, only two are what I consider the most beautiful in any language—God and woman.

All things are of God according to the spirit in them. The nearest of all to God is woman. I’m bold in my scripting about her and profoundly happy-go-lucky to write about God’s masterpiece because I feel what’s being said pleases Jesus when addressed to his mother.

I wrote the twenty-one stories in this book. I want readers to make notes after each story. I want you to know woman for yourself, live in love and caring, and learn the meaning of existence. I’ve discovered that the simplest treasures are what God gave us as his masterpiece, and this is what everyday travelers seek to discover in life. You may discover that her company is worthy of learning because I have felt welcomed and loved in ways I never imagined possible.

I offer my insights about woman here freely and openly and ask nothing in return. I hope you reflect on each story. Convince yourself one way or another regarding God’s masterpiece—woman. Think about what you read before you go to sleep. The next day, search your soul and ask yourself, Does it feel right? Does it make sense? If so, read another story. I hope you let them unfold, pause, breathe, and blow away the dust of ignorance in your mind. Her story has been told for thousands of days and nights; they have gathered to listen without being heard. However, the current look on your faces has inspired me to continue writing and living.

I assume most of you regard me as a fearsome old man whose words are aloof and irritable, but let us travel through the stories together. My thoughts will become real, and you’ll come to understand me better than anybody else. I closed my ears and eyes to her story for too long. Telling her story has awakened life in me, and it will soon do the same to you.

Thousands of days—a long time to have lived in a state of mental doldrums, but you will approach the end of ignorance as you read. Your mind will float away as my stories unfold. I will use words and every other tool I can to ensure my message is clear and concise. Some may feel they haven’t lost much even if this book fails to help them understand God’s masterpiece—woman. I don’t think the book will have failed them. I think they will have failed to understand what they have read.

What would it mean to you to have an effective means of putting yourself in a position of knowing and understanding woman as God created her? This knowledge would last the rest of your life. Such knowledge is priceless, and it is one contribution this book makes.

The Almighty is responsible for offering the gift of knowledge. However, he gives knowledge to people who have established a sincere commitment to him. God’s words about women give insights into their value. And they are just getting started. Maybe you are yet to understand, but give it a moment—think and understand while you’re reading and learn that no stock on Wall Street pays greater dividends than believing in your abilities to understand God’s clarification of her.

If you can’t wait to start the next story, understand that you will be paid for pausing for a while. Let any one story soak in and reflect on the valuable things you have learned in it.

God’s words never returned void. Nobody shall lack, according to the Bible. The Lord’s mouth has instructed it, and his Spirit will bring them together. Stand up and be heard or be silent and fall.

Life began because of woman. Mother-daughter lines came to the rescue of the world. Only a woman can bring change to the world. Her compassion, love, and tenderness have made her dear to all throughout time. She has influenced all, even those whose sensitive souls lie dormant over time. Now, they will hear the voices of women.

Women and water are God’s greatest treasures we can’t live without. Only a woman can bring change to the world. Connect yourself to this book because everyone will be talking about it soon. No matter the historic chatter about women, it’s clear what the future holds; Revelation 12 explains that. This story is perhaps the most spoken account of women’s history anywhere in the world and the Bible.

Revelation 12 begins with a woman who was about to give birth to a child who would rule the nations with an iron staff. He was caught up to God and his throne. If any woman is offended by what she reads in my book, I hope she finds it in her heart to accept my apologies. The Lord knows that my intention is not to offend his masterpiece—woman—but to honor her. I want to give my voice to this book but remain silent throughout the reading so God’s message can be received, understood, and followed.

I’m glad you decided to read my book or even just see what it’s about. As you read my stories, you will see why God chose her to be the subject for his masterpiece. He could have chosen anything or anyone, but he chose her. He gave us his best just as he wants us to give him our best.

I chose this title mainly because to this day, I keep learning the most important person in everyone’s life is a woman even if he or she doesn’t know who she is.

I want to inspire you to open up to your thoughts. Believe what you are reading; don’t discard what you don’t understand, but allow it to be. Everything you read is by choice; the consequences of inspirational learning are your responsibility. Your continuing journey of learning is never about you but about God creating that ability in you.

It’s a privilege to write to a friend, husband, brother, uncle, cousin, and neighbor about God’s divine hand working through me to produce this book. Some people might consider his ideas and thoughts present in my words and stories old fashioned. I take that as a compliment because all gifts come with a price.

I am thankful to God and am pleased to observe my name among the references cited in this book. I hope this book will plant seeds that will influence women to start a movement as they take control. Despite my shortfalls and ignorance about her at times, God guided my thoughts away from misconceptions about his awesome creation. Old books, old stories, old judgments, old ideas, and old concepts about women are about to end; this book will effectually demolish the preconceived lies told about her. Woman has often been muted over the ages, but she is undergoing a paradigm shift. As far as life-altering paradoxes go, her effect poses a strikingly paradoxical enigma that will engulf humanity.

I’ve carefully reviewed the book I’ve written about women, and I know that it is honest. I have found great satisfaction in writing about women. There are some excellent books about women, and I’ve tried to compose another. Whether I’ve succeeded partially, fully, or not at all is for woman and God to decide.

I hope this well-researched book engages you in woman’s daily life. The spiritual imagination, gifted writing, and engaging style of the author present an enthralling and intimate story about the creation of woman. The stories portray the creation and evolutionary journeys of the masterpiece of women. Every paragraph will demonstrate the unity and oneness she possesses with a supreme, masterful vision posted on canvases and statues to illustrate the beginning of humanity.

As you continue to read, you will make more discoveries. The discoveries are compiled with unanswered questions you might have had for some time. I hope that I will answer them and that you will discover her importance.

God took the brightness of the stars, the undulating shapes of the universe, the entwinement of the galaxy, the density of the clouds, the firmness of roses and velvet, the softness of a horse’s nose, the smell of flowers, the lightness of dew, the glance of the dawn, the mist of the clouds, the gracefulness of the peacock, the scream in the strength of the eagle, the hardness of diamond, the sweetness of nectar, and the warmth of the sun to create woman. This book will provide an understanding of woman. I will make her rise like a phoenix from the ashes of my words to help you understand who she is—God’s special gift to man. This is my chance to help man, who has really never had an opportunity to get to know her and the joy woman can bring into his life, the joy that flows into his being especially when he sees the way God designed her.

I hope you will find renewed hope in her after reading this book with an unbiased mind. If you read with doubt, you shut your heart to the truth. Biases and prejudices are all part of being a person, but recognizing and identifying them will guide you to the truth about and the history of woman—what she was and what she is today—someone inspired by her brave deeds and ideals that God impregnated in her.

But when expressed of her love and beauty, her fortitude becomes strengthened in times of trial. If one should happen to forget, one should be reminded that apart from her, what do we have?

Lord, my prayer remains the same. Please show me things for what they really are, so that I do not be deceived and dishonor you. Not by bread alone …

PREFACE

I was so much in character as I gathered my thoughts, experiences, and admirations about how robust and intelligent woman truly is when I was writing this book that I sometimes forgot I was a man (lol), and I said, Wow, God! You made her so beautiful.

I tied to capture another scene to write about while enjoying an evening meal with my family. A little light somehow stayed above her head; the day’s lazy life wrapped its arms around us. I tried to settle down for the night and turn my brain off. Soon, I was awakened by another thought. Soft breathing sounds wafted toward my bedside; I got up and continued writing.

In our house, a fan runs through the night to cool us. In this manner, we kept a light going throughout the night without having to borrow a flicker of light from a neighbor. Lying in my bed, I watched as a lamp softened the darkness. A whisper of wind caught the security light outside throwing shadows around the bedroom. I couldn’t fall asleep. I felt strange, restless, unsettled. I got up, grabbed my iPAD, and wrote.

I dedicated this book to women
