.dangerous woman.

This is my mom doing some teaching in Malawi, Africa. I am so proud of her.

“May we be women who acknowledge our power to change, and grow, and be radically alive for God.

May we pray deeply and teach wisely.
May we be healers of wounds and righters of wrongs.
May we weep with those who weep and speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.
May we cherish children, embrace the elderly, and empower the poor.
May we be strong and gentle leaders.
May we sing songs of joy and laugh out loud in the face of fear.
May we join our tribe and thank God for our sisters.
May we never hesitate to let passion push us, conviction compel us, and righteous anger energize us.
May we strike fear into all that is unjust and evil in the world.
May we dismantle abusive systems and silence lies with truth.
May we shine like stars in a darkened generation.
May we do good in the name of Jesus and by the power of God.
And in the name and by that power, may we change the world.
Jesus, make us dangerous women.”
