Book excerpt: An innocuous article in a magazine lands nineyearold Safia Mehdi in the world of purdah. Her father gets her married to Abbas Jafri, son of the famous Jafri family of Lucknow. Abbas is a barrister and author of a controversial book. Safia's father hopes that she would be able to bring back her deviated husband to 'God's true faith'. Ironically, Abbas who dreams of a liberated India where women enjoy equal rights as men, leads Safia to break free from the stereotype of a traditional Muslim woman. Set against the tumultuous period of preIndependence, the husbandwife duo embarks on a journey, elucidating the way to a progressive nation. However, just when everything seems alright, Abbas is issued a fatwa for confronting the Imam, preaching inequality between men and women. His Marxist Party too ostracizes him for criticizing the Shariat for the sorry state of the Muslim women in the country. Consequently, Abbas is killed by Muslim fanatics and Safia is left all alone to fend for herself and her daughter.With time, Safia gains grit and common sense. Armed with her forth righteousness and sheer belief in her 'power' of being a woman, Safia walks on, championing the cause of women empowerment. But does she manage to bring about that muchawaited change or falls a victim to the repressive dogmas of the society? Can she help the Muslim women to step forward, wrench their tightly closed fingers open and set out to build a world to suit their destiny? Can women become the God that they were always meant to be? My God is a Woman tries to seek answers to some of these questions.

Download or read book Beautiful Things Happen When a Woman Trusts God written by Sheila Walsh and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2010-02-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you ever question God’s ability to catch you when you fall? Do shame, fear, and brokenness keep you from fully trusting God? Do you secretly believe your dreams are unreachable? Do you secretly believe your dreams are unreachable? You are not alone. This is a book about trust. How we fight it. How we learn to do it. How it transforms us. Life is not safe. That reality slips over us as we grow. Our response to the Father in that reality allows us either to swing higher and higher with the trust of a child . . . or fearfully shrink back from the swing set altogether. As we weigh that choice, God whispers: Trust me. In a remarkably transparent account, author and speaker Sheila Walsh opens wide her lifelong battle with trust and the moment-by-moment choices she made to follow where God led. Sheila has lived a life ruled by the “hidden places” of insecurity and brokenness and knows the overwhelming beauty of a life wholly handed over to Christ. As you encounter her struggles and triumphs, you also meet ten of the Bible’s transformed—Tabitha, David, Paul, and others—who teach us that in spite of overwhelming circumstances, just one trusting encounter with Christ sets beautiful things in motion. It can resurrect dreams, instill purpose, and ignite hope.

Download or read book God Really Is A Woman written by Virgil Leroy Pace and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God Really Is a Woman When we say God is really a woman we have come to this conclusion by both Scriptural proof and logic. God is perfect in all things. Therefore He is perfect in logic. We see in the Scriptures that God is three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Jesus speaking to His twelve apostles said in Matthew 28, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel, baptizing in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." The popular belief is that the Virgin Mary is the mother of Jesus. The scriptures show that the Holy Spirit is the Mother which we will see. The Holy Spirit descended from the clouds in the form of a dove. What a wonderful, beautiful picture of the blessed Holy Spirit Mother. We cannot learn the truth of God from the manuscripts. A lifetime of study of them wouldn't reveal the truth of the Holy Spirit. It has been lost in the translations. But not in God's Word. Jesus said, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my word will not pass away." The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, (Father, Son, Mother), is a perfect picture and example of a perfect family by which every family should strive to imitate.
