I don't believe an accident of birth makes people sisters or brothers. It makes them siblings, gives them mutuality of parentage. Sisterhood and brotherhood is a condition people have to work at. – Maya Angelou

Yesterday, I am told, was “National Sister Day”. Me, I was blessed with three beautiful women whom I share blood with, not to mention Alberta, Melissa, and Jen who later became “blood sisters” with me in our childhood games. Ya Ya. 


The word, ‘sisterhood’ in my heart’s opinion is very similar to ‘servanthood’. Likewise to be sought after, in that what we do for each other is to service each other’s hearts and well-being and in many cases our physical health. Titus 2 talks about doing good (for goodness sake) and having integrity. I think this is a good definition of sisterhood and servanthood too.
Which women in your circle are you praying for? Who do you send a meal to? A flower to? An encouraging word to? If you don’t have one, ask God and He’ll put someone in your heart, I ga-run-tee!
And to Sheila, Theresa, and Toni-Anne…a little something from Doris Day…
