Penelope Swithinbank had everything--three fine children, a nanny, three cars, her own thriving business and two houses--not the classic image of the vicar's wife. Superficially everything was perfect. But deep inside both she and her husband were stressed out, and it was tearing them apart. 'Instead of going to the fountain of life to be refreshed each day and be given grace and strength, I tried other things. I worked hard, to shut God out and leave no space for him. My values began to change... I needed to learn to let God take ove the reins of my life. He had to teach me the hard way.' Penelope believes God has a plan for each of us, tomboy or princess, whether we have short fingers or large ears, blonde curls or grey layers. She believes he chooses, calls and equips us to be women of integrity and influence, just as he made us. This book helps each of us to be different, by being free to be ourselves--as women designed by God.
