Daughters of God is designed to be an encouragement, inspiration,
and affirmation to women around the world. It includes counsels that
lead women to strive for the highest ideals in whatever walk of life
they find themselves, be it personal or professional. Every woman is
of inestimable value in the sight of our heavenly father. He created
woman to stand by the side of man, equal in value before God, and
associated with him in the work he was given to do. The Father gave
his only begotten Son to die for the entire human race, individually
and collectively, male and female
.
It is our hope that church members around the world will gain new
insights and blessings from reading this volume. God needs the talents
of all his people to help finish his work on earth

All who work for God should have the Martha and the Mary attributes
blended—a willingness to minister and a sincere love of the truth. Self
and selfishness must be put out of sight. God calls for earnest women
workers, workers who are prudent, warmhearted, tender, and true to
principle. He calls for persevering women who will take their minds
from self and their personal convenience, and will center them on
Christ, speaking words of truth, praying with the persons to whom
they can obtain access, laboring for the conversion of
souls.—
