About the Logo
Graceful, Grounded and Guided
"Graceful - Grounded - Guided" draws inspiration from two prominent biblical verses: Jeremiah 29:11 and Proverbs 31.
Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) states: "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
This is Dr. Angela's life verse. This verse speaks of God's promise of hope and a prosperous future for His people. It reflects the idea of being guided by a divine plan, where individuals can find assurance and confidence in their journey through life. In the context of "Graceful Grounded and Guided," this verse serves as a foundation for the belief in personal guidance and assurance, leading to a sense of gracefulness and purpose; for all people, not just women.
Proverbs 31 is a chapter that describes the characteristics of an ideal woman, often referred to as the Virtuous Woman or the Woman of Noble Character. Verses 10-31 detail various qualities such as strength, wisdom, kindness, and industriousness. In particular Proverbs 31:25.
The NIV translation reads: "She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come." The CEV translation reads: "She is strong and graceful, as well as cheerful about the future."
No matter which translation you use, this verse embodies the idea of being grounded and guided by virtues such as strength, dignity, and optimism, even in the face of uncertainty. It reflects the resilience and confidence of a person who is firmly rooted in their values and faith.
Therefore, "Graceful Grounded and Guided" takes inspiration from these biblical passages to convey a message of hope, purpose, and resilience, emphasizing the importance of being guided by faith and virtuous principles in navigating life's journey.
