    We so need to listen and understand the words Sister speaks ! Not deflecting like we see is the norm now. Be honest with yourself be true to yourself and most important see Christ in ALL! Sister’s words come straight from Christ. There is only one GOD meaning we are all part of the conversation . We need this more now than ever. Like she said we lost our moral compass . Not everyone will ever agree but not speaking up NOW is a loss for all of us. We are so much better than this ! Let’s say No more and be the prophet who says yes to life.
