This is a Job... for Maya Moore!

Moore and Griner playing for UMMC against Moscow Dynamo 2017-18 season

If I ran the WNBA, I would ask Maya and her husband Jonathan if they would be willing to travel to Russia and plead for the release of Brittney Griner, with a large sum of cash raised by NBA/WNBA players passing the hat...

I bet if she prayed on it, Maya would go.  She'd be effective too, in negotiating in good faith to secure the woman's release.  A Christian first, a calm and patient woman who trusts in God, and instrument of peace, who could permit Putin to save face with this athlete's parole...

With America arming up, it looks like the Ukrainian war won't be drawing to a close anytime soon.  The people are suffering now, and not so cocky as in the earlier days -- pray for those trapped in the Maripoul' steel mill -- they will be likely starved to death, like flu-stricken chicken and pigs are overheated to death in American factories, in mass killings.  Hell of a way to die...

If Maya Moore can bring Brittney Griner home, or can make the effort as a Christian woman to do so, I think she would be successful.  Maybe even help in ending the sufferings of others, if she could break the stalemate of "winner takes all" that won't permit a letup to the deaths, sufferings and global trade disruptions...

Why not?  Maya Moore is so much bigger than basketball at this point in her life:

"Even though I've got a lot of awards and honors, it's nothing compared to what The Lord has done to my heart and what He's done for the world"

 "I'm grateful to have the platform of an elite student-athlete and professional basketball player, and I want to do His will with my life."

She's an Olympian, she's played overseas in China and won a championship with Griner representing UMMC Ekaterinburg in Russia.  Most importantly, she has proven herself fearless in walking with the Lord, and has a great deal of inner strength, you can tell...

She gets the job done.

If the politicians and military leaders can't break through to negotiate a peace agreement, put in a Christian woman as a diplomat who believes God has a better way for his people in this world.  A worldwide well-respected woman like Moore can accomplish things with God's help that other mortals cannot even imagine.  This I believe.
