Women are struggling to make ends meet. They are going through so much. They have to deal with a lot of bad things. They have to deal with the devil. They are being harassed at the club. They are being taken advantage of at the church. They are being judged. They are being pressured to conform to society’s expectations. They are constantly being put in harm’s way. They are being forced to deal with the terrorists. They are being judged for their religious beliefs. They’re not allowed to pray in peace. They are being told they’re not worthy of God’s love
