leadership

Sometimes it's discouraging because it seems like male leadership in Christianity is dead. But tonight my hope was renewed as I saw my fellow students stand up and recite and share things that meant a lot to them. There were some girls who shared but over all there were mostly guys sharing. It reminded me that this place, my school, is raising up leaders, to turn around the trend of men staying in the background while women take over because the men won't step up. (Deborah anyone...? Judges chapter 4.)

This was an odd post... I'm not sure how to word my happiness at this prospect of change. It's very rare indeed for me to be wordless.

Respect. I guess that might sum up how I feel right now. It was a small thing, but I respect them a whole lot.
