My heart is broken for the violent deaths of our brothers & sisters in Christchurch. Murdered during prayer, because a group of people live in fear with a closed mind and feel they have the right to take lives of others, that they have more right to live than an other. This is fundamentally wrong. It’s rare for me to speak publicly on heavy matters concerning the world on social media but I want to invite you, reading this to join me in prayer today for peace. •
I am Christian Woman, I believe wholeheartedly in the goodness of God. I don’t believe there is only one way to love God. Today I am going to burn sage to cleanse & offer 59 (the number of beads on a Catholic Rosary) Sun Salutations for the lives lost, while reciting a Muslim prayer for peace - for the deeply grieving world community. I want pray symbolically as I truly believe is God is bigger than any one traditional religion and that all the Angels, Saints, Profits, Gods, Goddess’s, Sun, Moon, Energy, Creator, Source, Universe WEEP for our human hearts that are so tragically divisive. •
Today, let’s practice an ecumenical prayer, each contributing our intentions for Peace with respect.
My heart is heavy. I would love for you to join me in offering a peace prayer, what ever your blessing looks like, let’s let the intent be the same. Peace for the world, Stop the Violence, Healing the hearts of the wounded, Rest for those Murdered. •
Here is the Muslim Peace Prayer; each religion or sect of of the spiritual realm use different words, choose the ones that you feel comfortable with. Today in solidarity I choose to pray with those that couldn’t finish their own prayers. ✨🙏 •
In the name of Allah, the beneficent, the merciful.
Praise be to the Lord of the Universe who has created us and made us into tribes and nations, that we may know each other, not that we may despise each other. If the enemy incline towards peace, do thou also incline towards peace, and trust in God, for the Lord is the one that heareth and knoweth all things. And the servants of God, Most Gracious are those who walk on the Earth in humility, and when we address them, we say “PEACE.” —Based on the Koran, 49:13, 8:61
Ahhh. This one hits home right in the feels. •
This thought process runs deep for me. I’ve been meditating on this for a few years; in my minds eye revisiting myself during some pivotal points in my early childhood and adolescence. 🌱 • This woman, (me today); ‘too much’, strong, knowing full well where her cracks are. • This woman whom is resilient, and determined, filled with a holy grace. • Loves wildly and deeply and doesn’t put up with unjust bs.
She (today’s me) likes to go back to comfort younger me, to help RE-write stories and teach younger me it’s okay to get angry, it’s okay to be loud and to take up all the damn space I want. I go back to walk with and hold, console and give permission to let go of stories that don’t serve me any longer. 🌑 I hear this. Be the woman you needed as a girl. • That’s right. Be her, boldly. Wildly and with holy fury. • Be her today so that others feel permission, feel encouraged and for you that you feel whole again. • You always knew who you needed to become. • You just needed to Remember who you are. .
