Hi Patricia and welcome to my blog!

I am always encouraged when I read the testimony of a woman who hung in their with her calling and did not let men try to steal her blessing from the Lord. Way to go!

Now as far as God being male and female and that God made Adam both male and female in the beginning, I have heard these arguments before, and I am sorry to say that I cringe when I hear them.

First of all if God is not male because He is pure Spirit and has no testosterone and no male parts, then He cannot be female either as He does not have estrogen nor does He have any body parts so He cannot be female. But I do believe it is safe to say that in His character He has shown the characteristics that we commonly claim for male and the ones we commonly assume to be female. The feminine nature is part of the entire human nature and we are all in the image of God.
