My Womb Opened Up (Poem)


My Womb Opened Up

My womb opened up and ... there... you .... were
A dream that came from my body and had a life all of its own
They measured you and weighed you according to Apgar and not God
But you were determined to be more than a number on a scale
And look at you now, my womb and I are prouder than peacocks with fanned feathers and necks held high
You are the epitome of the life that connected inside of me in a moment of love and pleasure and ...destiny
Look at you now, my womb and I are proud of what we birthed and unearthed
Be whole in this journey and know that you have a womb too
So live and bring forth life that will aspire, inspire, bring forth fruit
My womb and I are tired and there will be no more baby showers here
oh no
But what we have created will live on into eternity because it is a reproduction of God himself
oh yes
I look at my dream and my heart bursts with confettied praise and joy and loud acclamations of acceptance
For what we brought forth was not birthed from rejection
oh no
My womb and I embraced you and in the fullness of purpose brought you forth
Dream on my little dreamer and be in agreement with your womb

That life is meant to be reproduced and can only replicate the image of the Living God

Don't Let the Day Get Away

Every day of our lives is like a garden. It requires care, attention, and protection. If we never weed, till, or water our gardens they will become so overgrown until we won't know our planted treasures from the clutter. The weeds, being equal to life's distractions, and the flowers, being the people and activities that deserve our planned and prioritized efforts, cannot peacefully co-exist. Our lives are worth every moment we can take to plan our days, organize our thoughts, master faith over our fears, and contribute love to a world in need. Take time every day to plan and think ahead about the ways in which you can extend the life of your treasures and rid yourself of the unnecessary fodder that would steal time and opportunity if left unchecked. Even say out loud, "My time is valuable because it is the conduit through which my life flows. My life is valuable because of how I cherish my time." Be Encouraged, Speak Life!

"I see little reason to delay giving when so much good can be achieved through supporting worthwhile causes today." -- Chuck Feeney, visionary philanthropist and founder of The Atlantic Philanthropies. Billionaire philanthropist Chuck Feeney has no interest in "taking it with him." By 2016, his foundation will have donated more than $7 billion to worthy causes around the world.

GOOD MORNING! In my morning meditation walk at work, I was encouraged by Holy Spirit to remember and to remind you that GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN US THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD! I want to encourage you to NEVER let anyone or any circumstance outside of you change, manipulate, contort or distort who God (CREATOR) created you to be! YOU ARE: Fearfully and wonderfully made and nothing less The head and not the tail and nothing less Above and not beneath and nothing less The righteousness of God and nothing less The manifested hope of times past and nothing less BECAUSE GOD IS GREATINYOU, YOU ARE GREATER THAN WHERE YOU ARE RIGHT NOW AND NOTHING LESS! Head up! Shoulders back! Chest out! Now, let's go get it! Loving YOU to Life! Dorothea Manley, Project Speak Life
