     a married woman gets a lesson in dealint with her crises
Then she hears a knock on her door. It was Mrs.Winders, the old widow from across the street. "Hello, Mrs Friedlin." "May I come in, dear?" " Yes, Mrs. Friedlin, come in." Mrs. Winders was a short, petite elderly woman of about 85 years old. She had a sweet face, wore thin-rimmed glasses, and has fluffy gray hair. "Yes, Ma'am, come in. Did someone bring you?" Mrs Winders answered, "My daughter and grandchildren are going to the store to buy a few things and I told her I wanted to be at your house to discuss an important matter with you." Mrs. Winders walked in. She wanted to tell her about the rash of recent robberies occuring in the neighborhood. She began to nod, "It is terrible what has been going on lately. No one is safe in their own homes anymore. I remember when we didn't hear about all of these robberies. People believed in God more back then, too. Nowadays, people are talking about taking God out of the schools and taking the Ten Commandments out of courthouses. It is a shame, I tell you. It is a shame." After she finished talking, Mrs. Winders noticed the expression on Elizabeth's face and asked her what was wrong. Elizabeth responded, "I have been overwhelmed." Elizabeth was in such despair that her eyes began to well up with tears. "There is too much going on." Elizabeth is in the house alone before Mrs. Winders stopped by. " Bill and I are not getting along, Tiffany is seeing this boy that just isn't right for her, and London has been avoiding us lately. There is no hope in sight. I ask God to help, but he doesn't answer me."

Who Says Women Can't Lead? by JAMES RONDINONE

We have been told from the pulpit that only men have been called to the leadership positions of the church. Uncovered truths and new translations have changed this perspective.
