Sis Falla doesn't deserve all this honor.

She isn't worthy of all these kind words.

At least, thats what SHE would say. But...we know better....

There are many sisters on this forum that deserves more honor than they are given. Sisters who do much more for God's Kingdom that they are recognized for. There's...

Sis Alvear... right now, somehere in a teeming hot South American city or jungle hut... serving, caring, giving, helping and just doing. Doing what 1) us men should be doing and 2) doing what alot of men criticize her for). But still doing...and helping... and caring....

Barb- What can I say? Who doesn't appreciate a sister who speaks what she feels... and speaks what we need to feel? A sister that can brighten a day quicker than the noon day sun. A sister whose writings have stirred many hearts ... including the hearts of some men who would never admit it.

Pressin on. Rambunctious (Did I spell that right?). Not afraid to jump into the fray. Wouldn't back down from a Texas rattlesnake. But... a heart that loves Gods people. A heart that breaks easily for those in need of prayer. And a heart that is spelled "C-H-R-I-S-T-I-A-N"

Inmyeyes- Now this ones different. Sees herself as she thinks others see her. Lost, a castaway. But, in truth... knows more about Jesus than I do. No... knows Jesus more than I do. Changing... transitioning.... finding her place in HIm. Not in a religion about Him... but in Christ. Ignorant and unlearned? Perhaps in her own eyes... but I percieve she has been with Jesus.

Sherri- almost sound like Cheery, doen't it? Well, thats by design. Because thats because she is. Even when she's as mad as a Tennessee tornado, there is a silver lining that reveals a cheerifulness. I've seen it before. Even in the most heated conversations of this forum, Sherri makes an appearance and good cheer appears. A credit to this forum, to her husband, to her church and to this forum.

Renda- The dreaded AFF aunt that shows up just when we started a good pillow fight and makes us behave. Oh, she doesn't fuss at us- or make us behave- but something about her just wants us to behave. One who, I suspect, has asked hereself, "Why do I put up with all the AFF fussin and feudin?" on more than one occasion. But, she already knows the answer. Its because she cares about people, and has shown it so many times. And she believes, as I do, that AFF folks are worth the hassle.

Margie- not your typical "OneGod, Apostolic, Holiness" sister. Not even sure she is a "OneGod, Apostolic, Holiness" sister. But, probably a lot more "OneGod, Apostolic, Holiness" than some... cause she appears to me to have the type of spirit I need to work on... "a truly Christian spirit".

Cheesestix- Whatever, you know, Texas Granny. Granny, my foot. Your posts, your humor, your "Ya'll just behave!" belies the young at heart. If I were a bettin' man, I'd bet you are a practical joker. Maybe not... but you laugh and have an incedible way of making others laugh and think at the same time. I'm reminded of a stand-up comic who says something serious in a funny sort of way. Truth delievered with humor. A concept Bill Cosby made famous. A rare talent you are, sister.

Well, I done went and done it. I started a list. I hate lists, because I want to include everyone (no favorites, you know). These aren't my favorites. Just a few of my favorites. However the clock on the wall, and the groweling of my belly, tells me I need to get busy doing other stuff. But, with this post, this thread has evolved (as most threads do). This is now an impromtu (don't ask me how to spell it, first time I ever used it!), Mothers Day thread. So to all sisters, grandmothers, mothers, wanna be mothers, gonna be mothers, Happy Mothers Day to you. May those about you, and many on this forum, help you to know just how special you really are.

I leave you all with this world renowned quote:

"Sisters are not honored for what the do, but for who they are"

You know who said that? Me. Just now. No, its not world renowned. But it should be.

Alright men, man up. Some of you tell us what you think about the AFF Sisters. (Remember, Fathers Day is coming up... the sisters will have to say nice things about us!)
