Women & The Priesthood

The church has gotten a lot of heat on Priesthood. People ask why can't women hold it? To me I want to say, "Why can't men have babies?" The answer is simple enough to me. That's how God desired us to be. He wanted us to be an unstoppable team. If we had both gifts we wouldn't rely on each other and become a strong married force for good!

I have been reading in Sheri Dew's book "God Wants A Powerful People" (She is the most amazing author!!! I admit my book shelf is full of her!) She says the perfect statement, "The Lord has not elaborated on His rationale about these matters, He has only declared His will. I happily accept His pattern for the governance of His Church as pure doctrine, knowing that it is inconsistent with the character of God that He could love, cherish, or favor His sons more then His daughters, or His daughters more then His sons."

What a perfect statement! Sister Dew has a strong belief that even if she didn't understand something she knows to trust God. Everything happens for a reason, and all things will be made right! Everyone should ask questions. Everyone should have opinions! But in the end, we must all trust God, and trust the he is directing us on the right path!
