Jesus asked, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers? Pointing to the disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother." Matthew 12:48, 49.My sweet friend who is undergoing her second round of chemotherapy sent me this video link--an author's reading of an essay about the way women bless and support one another. I have known this blessing through so many women who do the will of their Father and so are my sisters in Christ.
Unwrapping my gift for today: the blessing of true sisterhood.

Powerful words.
there is such a blessing in the vulnerability and transparency of genuine sisterhood if we are willing to take the rist...It is lovely and beautiful...
I love Kelly Corrigan -- I've even seen that video clip before...my sister-in-law Vanessa sent it to me a whiel back. You are right -- friends fill the gap.
