We Are Sisters

c)1994 Dianna Gilliam

We are sisters...
                  All colors, ages, shapes, and sizes;
                  Each unique and yet so much alike.
                 Daughters of God, queens in embryo;
        Learning as we grow in spirit toward one another.
                              Our interests vary,
                       Our skills are not the same;
                Yet as the variegated skein unwinds
        We discover it makes up into a beautiful pattern
                        in our Father's skillful hands.

We are sisters...
                         Giving, receiving, sharing, caring;
                 Serving with no thought of earthly reward...
                 being sweetly bold as occasion demands.
                        Reaching out, to help and be helped;
                                Lifting others, being lifted...
                   coming to understand that we are not alone.

We are sisters...
          Sisters bound together in a society like no other...
                                     Beyond sorority.
               Mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, cousins,
                               grandmothers, teachers;
    Preserving, nurturing, insuring our destiny with our deeds.
                   Giving thanks for our duties and blessings
                                 and going the extra mile.

We are sisters...
             Building testimonies, supporting priesthood;
                      Keeping our fire burning bright
          as a beacon to guide others from darkness.
       Strengthening one another, our families, and friends;
                 Sustaining, maintaining without murmur;
                  Loving our Saviour and our fellow man.
                 Seeking His light and gaining wisdom---
                      Charity, indeed, never faileth!
