REPAIR RELIGIOUS PERCEPTIONS: sacred whore series

ISLAM
Strangely, and sadly in the houses of Islam are fortified stances reluctant to make stands against slavery, the sex trade, and kidnapping. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories

HEALING THE WOMAN
ANK held by black woman angelic being by Monica Rae Williams
Quantum Physics = African Spirituality
My new thought:
quantum Physics= A old African tradition of African spiritulity and ancestry, bringing along to the present and having a healthy respect for the past being in both place at the same time, past and present. what do you think? – Lawrence Davis
“The deeper work today throughout the African Dispora is to incorporate Sankofa into the spirit, first, and then the intellect which is the reverse of the paradigm absorbed by Africans, too many Africans, today, from our white relatives.” – Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories
BLACK BEAUTY BLACK WOMANHOOD
"The black beauty of Bria Myles evokes in the thinking of a man, now an elder, who has not lived as a whore a vision of the possible journey Bria Myles would take to become a woman deeply invested in the culture of her being, the sanctity of her womanhood, and the divine history of her people."

a SACRED STORY: trickster
Insignificant Goals
"Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes.".......(Song of Solomon 2:15 (NKJV).
Some years ago a headline told of three hundred whales that suddenly died. The whales were pursuing sardines and found themselves marooned in a bay. The small fish lured the sea giants to their death. They came to their violent demise by chasing small ends, by prostituting vast powers for insignificant goals.
How often in life "little things" can seem so insignificant. For instance, the kid who smokes his first cigarette probably reasons with himself, "One smoke will not hurt," never dreaming he would get addicted to nicotine. The same is true of the alcoholic and the drug addict. One drink will never hurt, or one drug will never hurt, never dreaming that they would end up as hopeless addicts.
Then there are those of us who pride ourselves that we are not addicted to any substance, but allow our lives to be consumed by so many little things that are harmless in and of themselves but take us away from God's purpose for our life.
All too often even good things become the enemy of the best in that they hinder or stop our becoming all that God has envisioned for us.
May we so live that in the end when we meet God face to face we will have no regrets but hear his welcoming words, "Well done, good and faithful servant, enter into the joy of your Lord." How we live today will determine what that outcome will be.
Suggested prayer: "Dear God, please give me the good sense to know that my life here is just a journey and a preparation for eternity. Help me to know what your purpose for my life is and so live that I will have no regrets when I am called home, but will hear your words, 'Well done, good and faithful servant.' Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, in Jesus' name, amen." by Jenny Matin
