Today we start a small series on the treasure and gift of friendship with other women, also known as sisterhood.
In a world where we are frequently beaten down and left feeling discouraged, it is often through the treasure of intimate and authentic relationships with other Christ seeking women that help pivot our hearts to truth and to our Lord’s endless loving embrace.
This is a topic very important to us, as the daily grind of poop explosions, spilled milk, sibling rivalries, meals to cook, bills to pay, and so much more can often be deflating. Yet, through the gift of sisterhood God wants to refresh our weary souls. "Just as lotions and fragrance give sensual delight, a sweet friendship refreshes the soul” Proverbs 27:9
We will explore this further as well as what it means to “lay one’s life down for another”

SHOW NOTES:
St. Thomas Aquinas
"The inner life of another that is known to God alone becomes to a much less degree open to to us through friendship. It partially fills the desire of our incomplete, lonely hearts for completeness in another. Friendship brings out the best part in a person through forgetfulness of self."
CCC 1829
