Bread Talk

This 2025, I wanna do something different. Last year, I got to know Sheera. She was only mentioned one time in the bible, 1 Chronicles 7:24. There was a verse before that that talks about Ephraim. I believe she is the daughter if Ephraim, is the second  son of Joseph. Ephraim played a vital role in the conquest of the Promised land under the leadeship of Joshua. They showcase their military prowess and commitment to the divine mandate. No wonder, Sheera was built 3 cities. Sheera's name means "to remain, be a remnant, to be small but perpetually survuvung portion of a family". She built Upper and lower Beth-Horon and Uzzen-sheerah! She is intelligent,farsighted,capable,talented and a leader.What caught my attention was she was only mentioned once yet she built 3 cities. In our modern world, i was hoping that we have a modern sheera who does not need a lot of attention yet who continue to build 3 cities. Today, the world aims for feminism, women empowerment and women who builds kingdom and empires who submits to authority and most importantly a strong woman whose foundation is the gospel. I read the bible quite a few now, and it was only now that I came to notice this woman. Had so many things done yet so humble doing things for the glory of God, Her name was placed in  the genealogoes of 1 Chronicles 7 to highlight her achievements. She was an early trailblazer whose work helped pave the way for today's women architects and city designers.
