Nuestro Camino Por Bolivia: Women Wrestling

Women Wrestling

A friend emailed me to tell me that she thought of me as she read an article in National Geographic about women wrestling in Bolivia. I'm going to the main square today to see if I can find it! You can also see it on the National Geographic website.

Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke? Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter—when you see the naked, to clothe them, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?
Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard. Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I. If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk, and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.
Isaiah 58:6-11 (The Bible)

Camino (def): n. way, path
Caminar: v. to walk

Él es la Roca, sus obras son perfectas, y todos sus caminos son justos. Dios es fiel; no practica la injusticia. Él es recto y justo. Deuteronomio 32:3-5

Por tanto, imiten a Dios, como hijos muy amados, y caminen en una vida de amor, así como Cristo nos amó y se entregó por nosotros como ofrenda y sacrificio fragante para Dios.
Efesios 5:1-2

Por eso, de la manera que recibieron a Cristo Jesús como Señor, caminen ahora en él,7 arraigados y edificados en él, confirmados en la fe como se les enseñó, y llenos de gratitud. Colosenses 2:6-7
