Quote from The Ministry of Cheerfulness by Jesse Duplantis -

"God created the first man and woman and called them Adam. God did not name Eve. Adam named Eve. When God created male and female, he called them both Adam! He chose the female Adam to procreate. She was called woman, which means 'man with a womb.' God did not create Eve from Adam's foot, he created her from Adam's side! God made woman to stand side by side with a man to such a degree that their prayers would be hindered if they argue. At the fall of man, God told Satan point blank that he would send one born of a woman's seed that would bust his head. Women don't have seed, men have seed! For the birth of Jesus, God did not need a man. He needed a man with a womb; He needed a woman."

Isn't that something? It reminds me of another quote I heard a while ago:

"Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib. Not from his feet to be walked on; Not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal! Under the arm to be protected, & next to the heart to be loved."

Even women who were thought of as dirt for hundreds of years (and in many cases, are still thought of that way today,) God has wonderful plans for them! God had to use a woman to birth Jesus, and he has to use woman for many other things in His ministry. It is my personal opinion that no man can be quite as motherly and understanding as a woman.
