Today I taught two sessions at the United Methodist Women’s assembly — on Prayer in Our Daily Lives. There are thousands of women here in St. Louis! I have seen the women from around the world. The beauty of God’s creation showing through these beautiful people.
Today I saw …
- Women — young and old.
- Women standing on the corner protesting the wall in Gaza and women walking across the street wearing hats that looked like Hershey’s Kisses.
- Women in heels, flip flops, and sensible shoes.
- Women in blue jeans, in the garb of Fiji and in African dress.
- Women of every color and hue, age and size …
All of us, sisters in faith. Thanks be to God for the opportunity to be in this place at this time. A holy place full of powerful mothers, sisters, and daughters of the faith.
All the Wonders 
God’s family is a beautiful rainbow and its colors shine more brightly after a storm. Thank God for the women in the United Methodist Church. They are always on the cutting edge as the church moves forward.
