Remarkable Women

Oftentimes we go through life and never stop to realize what's going on around us. Recently I attended a meeting of women from church and enjoyed an evening of good food, companionship and holiday cheer. In addition to those surface rewards we were also blessed with the opportunity to serve and the opportunity to strengthen and sustain each other. There are other places within the context of worldly pursuits where we can gain those experiences, but being a part of this 'tribe' allows us countless blessings to share and expand our skills and to be a part of something bigger, better and more important than one's self. The fact that this service occurs in the Kingdom of God makes it an everlasting experience. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be included and involved in this grand work.

Many thanks to the women who believe in these profound truths and practice their beliefs. Your example strengthens me in times of happiness and during times of trial. Sisters forever!

I've never thought of it like that but you have worded it well! If it's enrichment (which I assume it is) I also love it! There's a wonderful feeling when you're in the presence of such great women. Thanks!
