She really was an amazing woman. I have learned so much from her life. I am studying now the various ways to live out justice in our walk and once again she is an example to me of one way. Happy weekend. dear Martha!

I fought staying with her but surprisingly even after 13 years – she still is with me. I always learn something new from her life. It is a good spiritual discipline to have some key people from our rich history to walk with. My spiritual director asked me that on retreat – who am I walking with now? something to ponder. Happy weekend, Lisa

That kind of commitment is worth getting to know her better. Blessings!

I’ve heard of her, but never read any of her works. I’m glad you stuck with her after your initial feelings of not wanting to. 🙂
