Lovers

With God's Name

As women, we are innate lovers. And our love shall extend to all things. It pains me deeply to hear about all the suffering occuring in various parts of the world. Whether it be the large sums of human beings driven to displacement camps in Sudan, or the little girl being abused in a "home" across the road from me. Though prayer is a powerful tool, many times I feel lost and confused when I can't seem to do more than pray.  And at this point, there's no other option BUT to do more. Putting an end to human suffering is what I was put on the earth to do. This I'm clear about. Honestly, I think we all share a role in that mission, and especially as mothers--lovers--caretakers--life-bearers. We have to remain committed and devoted to the giving and sustaining of life, on every level. Our bodies support the growth and development of life, unlike the male anatomy. A woman's fabric is warm, colorful and made of love, and shall cover the Earth, to protect her from the cold and harshest of winds. Winds that affect all of us. We are protectors, in our special way. Love-warriors.

On that note, I will always add information that speaks to this mission. I urge all of us to read, listen, and involve ourselves in the cause for humanity in any way.  Many times, the way of the moment will be a simple, yet heartfelt prayer. That counts. That 
keeps The Heart alive and connected.  Being seriously devoted to your own family counts. But let us never forget about the forgotten, the suppressed, the less-fortunate, the downtrodden. 

The situation is DIRE is Sudan, as ALL the Aid organizations were recently kicked out by President Omar El-Bashir, because a warrant was issued for his arrest by the International Criminal Court. Read Why Activism Still Matters for Sudan....AND What YOU Can Do.

    "As women, we are innate lovers. And our love shall extend to all things."

    "hough prayer is a powerful tool, many times I feel lost and confused when I can't seem to do more than pray. And at this point, there's no other option BUT to do more." This reminds me to pray for what I want regardless.

    "Our bodies support the growth and development of life, unlike the male anatomy. A woman's fabric is warm, colorful and made of love, and shall cover the Earth," This should be on the entrance spiritually to the house we are building.

    Yes, Sheed, pray--regardless, we saw that in a MAJOR way today....;D God doesn't want us to lose or seperate from the connection. We have to utilize all our "weapons".
    I agree, that would be a fitting entrance....subhan'Allah-Glory to God!
