One day a petition was presented by the daughters of Zelophehad—Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. Their father, Zelophehad, was a descendant of Hepher son of Gilead, son of Makir, son of Manasseh, son of Joseph. These women stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the tribal leaders, and the entire community at the entrance of the Tabernacle. “Our father died in the wilderness,” they said. “He was not among Korah’s followers, who rebelled against the LORD; he died because of his own sin. But he had no sons. Why should the name of our father disappear from his clan just because he had no sons? Give us property along with the rest of our relatives.” So Moses brought their case before the LORD. And the LORD replied to Moses, “The claim of the daughters of Zelophehad is legitimate. You must give them a grant of land along with their father’s relatives. Assign them the property that would have been given to their father. “And give the following instructions to the people of Israel: If a man dies and has no son, then give his inheritance to his daughters. And if he has no daughter either, transfer his inheritance to his brothers. If he has no brothers, give his inheritance to his father’s brothers. But if his father has no brothers, give his inheritance to the nearest relative in his clan. This is a legal requirement for the people of Israel, just as the LORD commanded Moses.”

Women are a precious gift from God to the world. You are creative, compassionate, intelligent, and, according to the Bible, equal to men. But years of abuse and wrong views of women have caused many of you to lose the confidence God wants you to enjoy. You may feel that you're somehow "less" than men. Less valuable. Less worthy. The truth is, you are very valuable to society, but more importantly to God. God wants you to be courageous, respected, admired, promoted, sought after, and most of all, loved. And you can be! This daily devotional will guide you toward a confident life filled with love, laughter and His acceptance. Write on it. Highlight it. Make the journey your own.
