Much Given, Much Required


What if this was your life? This COULD be your life. Real women, with personalities and feelings just like you, having babies, cooking supper, having tea with friends, cleaning the house, just like you. But their lives are also very different. The main differences being an oppressive religion, a life of virtually no freedom or choice or independence and an environment of never-ending war and violence.
And it could very easily have been YOUR life.
Remember the women of Afghanistan. Pray for them. Be a voice for them.
To whom much is given, much is required...

YES!!! much needed reminder for all women to acknowledge women in different life situations than their own whether it is in a developing country or otherwise! look outside of one's small daily world and remember others! i am grateful for what i have been given and it compels me to give much to others! love it and love you.
