Psalm 126:2
Our mouths were filled with laughter,
our tongues with songs of joy.
Then it was said among the nations,
“The LORD has done great things for us!"
Tonight I spent time with some of the most incredible women I have ever known- single moms, college students, professional women, women of different races and stations of life, and a couple of women from different countries. What could bring such a diverse group together, and what do we all have in common? The answer to this question is as simple as it is complex: Jesus. We all attend the same church, and have been adopted into the family of God because of our faith in Jesus Christ. We all sat around a kitchen table played games, fellowshiped, and laughed until I'm sure a few of needed to run to the bathroom. What a blessing to be able to reach across racial, social, and national boundaries and find a sister: to be able to say "The Lord has done great things for us!" I pray He continues to bring more and more diversity to my growing list of sister-friends. I am truly thankful for this gift!
<3 it!!
