Your welcome...this is not a prophetic word...just a word to encourage trusting His voice.
Thanks, and apologies. It seems I mistook my sister for a brother.

So then what you are saying is that this is simply the way it has to be...well then pray that Abba, Father, will forgive me and restore me to a rightful place with him. Thank you.
That is something you have to do, no one can do it for you.

Yeah, that did throw me. On the other hand it kind of worked for me with what you wrote, which if I am frank (perhaps to my shame) may not have been the case (am I alone in this or is it more common?) if you had told me that you were a woman who see's things. It would appear that I have much to learn (in respect).
My Grandmother was often shunned for her sharp but honest tongue and yet I know many cantankerous old men who are given respect.
A hard road you walk my Sister, but you are not alone.

Oh dear. I didn't mean to create such problems.
I don't see any real problem, just a minor (if humorous) error. No condo, no bondo.

The girly in armour is what I mean! I think Heart2soul's avatar is far more in keeping with her calling. She is more the Black knight than the Sexy herald in metal.

Being an amateur eidonomist (and fan of superhero art), a female's armor would still need to accommodate a female skeleton (narrower shoulders, wider hips, etc.). There are so many subtle differences between the male and female skeletons.

Eidonomy requires a medical level of understanding of a human figure. "Sexy" is just an afterthought.

LOL I have noticed. But surely a skeleton does not have the bumps at the front (or at the rear and the sides for that matter). Not seriously an issue for me but it does reflect some of what I was writing in my earlier post.

This particular rig DOES reflect a different calling (until she breaks out her shophar ;)).

You still have to make room for [stuff] just like male armor would. That is a fact in any clothing design.

I agree. The thing is that in her OP (if I read it correctly), Heart2soul indentifies as a prophet that has been shunned because of the word they have been called to speak to the people, a word that has often been unpleasant and unwelcome but nevertheless is in accordance with the Truth and authorized by Him, and she suffers for this.
I do not wish to offend you with my forthright opinion, so please don't credit me with an offence for my opinionation.
Your rig shows something shining, very feminine and victorous, which may come in the future, but certainly does not depict the here and now.
Rather (IMO) a rig that suits the OP would depict something like a cross between a dirty goatskin prophetess of Israel and a blood stained battle worn knight. Wish I could draw what I see but it is beyond me for now.

Don't get me wrong. I pressed the like button and then realised what I was saying by doing so, so retracted it. TBH not the least because seeing such shapes in armour can be a bit of a problem for me.

I'm not offended. I see God's army as having a variety of military occupational specialties (just as modern armies do).* And they are all welcome and needed. Paul put it this way,

" Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching; he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness." Romans 12:6-8

*In the Old Testament, every soldier carried a sword and a shield, but some would be additionally skilled at archery, the sling, as horsemen & charioteers, etc. I see that as being analogous to being many parts, though one body.

"To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:

A time to be born, And a time to die;
A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted;
A time to kill, And a time to heal;
A time to break down, And a time to build up;
A time to weep, And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, And a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to gain, And a time to lose;
A time to keep, And a time to throw away;
A time to tear, And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;
A time to love, And a time to hate;
A time of war, And a time of peace."
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to stumble you.
