This woman delivers what might just be the most powerful sstatement/speech you view today.
“What kind of mental contortions does it take to go from chanting ‘Women, Life, Freedom’ to defending the Islamic Republic, the very regime that beat Mahsa Amini to death over a strand of hair, waving Palestinian flags wrapped in keffiyehs. They gather in Berlin, London and Toronto under slogans stolen from our dead….but Western Leftists, Arab Islamists, ideologues and opportunists, none of these morally rotten frauds mourning our pain, the excut*on of our brothers and fathers, the r*pe of our sisters and daughters. The torture, disappearance and mu*der of our friends….”
Incredibly powerful my friend. So many people in those countries with stolen futures, oppressed into oblivion, living in fear. This woman is a crusader with her words.
Wake up people supporting regimes like this. You are are the wrong side of history.
Our greatest weaknesses are often the raw material God uses to demonstrate his strength. He uses our losses, struggles, and deficiencies as the vehicles for his kind of success in our life.
So we wrestle with weaknesses. So our closets have enough skeletons to populate a graveyard. So we weren’t voted Most Likely to Succeed or marched home from Sunday school with ribbons for Bible memorization. This is not about us. Neither how good we think we are nor how bad we know we are constitute our identity or empower us for the missions on which God sends us. Our trust is in Christ, who chooses the last and the least over the first and the greatest.
We write our story in a way that draws upon our strengths, our hopes, our plans, and dreams. But he writes our story in a way that highlights our weaknesses, our fears, our deficiencies. Why? Because in so doing he showcases the areas of our lives where he does his best work. Yes, God can and does use our unique talents and abilities, but most often he uses whatever is going to spotlight our nothingness and his everything.
His story in our lives is most obvious when the narrative has taken a turn toward the cross.
The self-image we cultivate tends to work on the false assumption that God desires us to grow more independent. To become better and stronger so that we need him less. We imagine the Lord is waiting for us to spread our wings and make our own way through this life.
But Christian maturity is not marked by independence but dependence. A growing awareness of our incessant need for Christ. The less we are, the more Christ is. Far from being bad news, this is the best news of all. For the more Christ is, the more we are the very people God has created us to be.
