Just a Little Stuffed Bear

There once was a little stuffed bear
That set alone
Upon an old cherry wood shelf’
Humming to himself a lyrical tune,
As he gazed across at the sun-lit window.

His companion had grown-up, you see
And went about there merry way.
But yet-
The little stuffed bear
Waited and waited for him to return one day.

The dust began to pile as snow
A pillar upon the top of his head
But yet the little bear still waited,
Gazing across at the sun-lit window
Humming his lyrical tune.

Word's Without Good Deeds is Fruitless

As words without good deed's one shall never prosper or be fruitless, as a liar shall stand alone in their arrogance; only to walk in the fire of their inequities.

For an honest man lives with truth, as honey upon the lips in a humble spirit and their good deed's benefits the whole of mankind. -HRM Deborah


They have sharpened their tongue like a serpent, a spider’s venom is under their lips. -Psalms 140:4

Allah's (Hashem's) Divine Care for an Exile

Allah (Hashem) is my shepherd (caretaker), I shall not lack.

In lush meadows He lays me down, beside tranquil waters (peaceful contentment).

He leads me and restores my soul. He leads me on paths for righteousness sake. Though I walk through the valley ( The world of an Exile, which is a place that this type of person has to live which is so vastly dark and dangerous, it appears as the grimness of a grave.) overshadowed by death, I shall fear no evil, for You are with me [Allah's (Hashem's)] protection and a believer's honest faith in Him; to the point of supreme friendship as a beloved and in love].

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me (faithful sure footing).

Your prepare table before me in view of my tormentors [lack of fear, for Allah (Hashem) protects from those who would cause harm or even death].

You anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows. May goodness and kindness (humility) pursue me all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the House of Allah (Hashem) for long days (always).*
-Psalms 23

*While Allah (Hashem) may give what an exile is in need for survival, He also protects them; increases their faith, as the exiles’ faithful trust in Him increases in all things, along with Allah’s (Hashem’s) blessings upon the exile and as to there place in Paradise. As an exiled believer, has extreme graditude for what Allah (Hashem) does for them.

An exile is a person forced unwillingly to live someplace other then their own home country or place of residence due to political conditions. It is also another term, referring to someone who has been kidnapped in Biblical terminology.


On a Given Day

When I was three years-old, my grandfather had me memorize Pslams 23 and be able to recite it perfectly; for at this age I was unable to read or write yet. At that age, I did not understand his intention; but I believe I do so more now.

On the day I had to learn this, my grandfather seemed to have other things on his mind; which he never shared with me (but gained an good idea or understood, as I grew older; especially with the loss of him) and I was surprised, that learning this was so important to him.-HRM Deborah

The Haughtiness of Arrogance

Pride precedes destruction and arrogance comes before a fall.
Proverbs 16:18

'Arrogance is refusing to acknowledge what is right and considering other’s beneath one.

'The Downfall and the Antiserum

“ Everyman who is filled with an arrogant spirit is as though he had worshipped idols, denied the basic principles of religion and committed every kind of immorality he deserves to be hewn down like an idolatrous image, his dust will not be moved ( will never enter Paradise) and the Shechinah (Allah, Hashem) laments over him.’

For there are three things that walk together; arrogance, pride and conceit (vanity).

The following is by or concerns Muhammad (PBUH):

"Tyrants and the arrogant will be raised on the Last Day as a grain strewn underfoot that people walk upon.”

Salama ibn al-Akwa’ recounts that a man was eating with his left hand in the presence of the Prophet (PBUH). The Prophet told him, “Eat with your right,” to which the man replied, “I cannot,” though nothing stopped him but arrogance. The Prophet said, “May you not be able to.” And the man could never lift his right hand to his mouth again.

Arrogance benefits' upon a person

The wickedest arrogance is that of someone who exalts himself over people because of his learning and gloats to himself about his superiority. The knowledge of such a person is absolutely no benefit to him. Whomever learns Sacred Knowledge for the sake of the next world is unsettled by his learning, his heart is humbled and his ego lowered. Such a person lies in wait for his selfishness and never gives it free rein. He constantly takes his ego to task and corrects it. Were he to neglect it, it would diverge from the right path and destroy him. The person who seeks knowledge to take pride in it or to gain a position of leadership, looking disdainfully at others, thinking them fools and making light of them-all this is the most enormous arrogance and “no one with the slightest particle of arrogance in his heart will enter paradise.”

Opposites Do Not Attract

Arrogance, pride and conceit, concerns every facet of a human being; from how they dress, think or even walk; if it is in the manner of strutting, for example; to even cause the oppression or disdain for others.

Some arrogant people are the ones who you have heard about, that holds there nose up in the air so high; so they do not have to look at the people below them; only these people with their nose's up, have and added problem, especially when it rains. These people are also referred too as snobs or being haughty.

The complete opposite of these haram’s (sins), is humility and the respectful, loving belief in the equality of others traveling though this life together.-HRM Deborah

Humanity


Who is it that hears not my cries?
As I lay motionless in my grave
Staring at the nail dug lid
With a heart that lays in innocence.

For I was born in unconditional love to walk with serenity
But instead, I have to suffer miseries burdens
As I beckon humbly and yearn for freedom
As oppression continues to be my lot.

My body is beaten with the warm blood still spattered across my chest
My bones are in tatter’s scattered by lies forgotten
The tears moisten the soil across every inch of the four winds
With droplet pools filled with anguish.

As you look at me- you see your sister, your brother, your child, your wife, your husband
But you no longer seek my embrace
If I ask you my name, your tongue will cease to speak.
So I lay here in contemplation for hope to be renewed.

Knowing by Deeds

When one see’s a person, do not just listen to there words or that which they wear; but look into there heart and you will also know them, by there deeds, if they are true.-HRM Deborah

Eyes and Ears Wide Open


It has been said, that what may appear to be a beggar, may be a prince in disguise or an angel may appear as many different people to give a test, help in some manner or deliver a message.

Just think, the middle-aged stocky man sitting by himself eating in a restaurant can be an Angel; sent to deliver a special warning message out of the bowels of hell, of a future event that could occur and give support.

Then if one should turn and look again, it will seem as though they have gone so quickly, along with the unusual plate with silverware and food that was not on the menu. Notwithstanding, it was the only table that did not have a tablecloth.

The message was in regards to writing, helping people and the divine others in combating the forces of Satan for the survival of humanity.

As Satan, is bent on the complete destruction of all of humanity ("No more people!"); even sending the worse of his Demons (Demoncrocia, Society of Demons) upon the earth nested in one place such as the Demon of Apostasy,with also within a war between Paradise (Heaven) and Hell itself that can be seen upon the earth.

I am not blind and I do not like what I think, I see.




Then one may have a thief or a demon, in a 500 dollar suit; who writes most eloquently, to what they think one wishes to hear and their actions are contrary to what one has heard from them, this is a sign that one should never follow nor listen to there deceptive words for there hellish heart lives in darkness. As Allah (Hashem) will cause inflictions to befall upon them.

But always remember, one will know who they actually are by there deeds or what they do; for this they can not hide.

Also, as for demon or Satan, Allah (Hashem) will let a person see beyond the deceptive mask to their true self; if one takes the time to focus, for they are not here to benefit mankind, but to cause people in erroneousness to stumble profusely.

Then that which may for a little time seem hidden from view for mankind’s benefit is sent from Allah (Hashem) by an Angel; to even at times the words Allah (Hashem) lays upon the mouth to be spoken unto others, with a glimmer of light. If an Angel actually wishes to be seen by Allah‘s (Hashem‘s) command, one will see them; but most people are a afraid because of all they behold, for their has been numerous writings towards this issue and some claims by people who have said to have seen them. Also, some animals can more easily see and hear them, among other things.


Just like some people wonder why I do not particularly care for glam and glitter, because most of the time it is not something good for me and I know it.

For I would rather be a humble person and serve Allah (Hashem) and mankind, then fall into any temptations and this has been my life from the beginning; for I do not know, how to be any other way.


The Good-Doer and the Thief

 
A good-doer [truly Allah (Hashem) loves the good-doer] who performs good deeds totally for Allah’s (Hashem’s) sake only, without any show-off or to gain praise or fame and in accordance to Allah’s (Hashem’s) true writings; not that which the disbelievers follow out of envy, to turn the believer away from the truth after it became manifest unto them.

As the disbeliever and those they steal through their deceit, they shall stumble an fall into the darkness of the disbelievers idolatries ( to also be as though knowledge has befell them), and iniquities; to further find their place in hellfire.

For too the disbeliever has added to the writings, so Allah (Hashem) has added plagues which was written by Allah (Hashem) alone and they have taken away that which was written, so Allah (Hashem) has taken away their part in the Book of life, from the holy city and from that which is truly written by Allah (Hashem).

As to what the disbeliever claims falsely [associating other’s with Allah (Hashem)], it shall consume (as fire creates ashes) them through their lack of understanding (knowledge).



The Good-for-Nothing
A scoundrel, an evil man
Lives by crooked speech,
Winking his eyes,
Shuffling his feet,
Pointing his finger.

Duplicity is in his heart;
He plots evil all the time;
He incites quarrels.
Therefore calamity will come upon him without warning;
Suddenly he will be broken beyond repair.

Six things the Lord hates;
Seven are an abomination to Him:
A haughty bearing.
A lying tongue.
Hands that shed innocent blood,
A mind that hatches evil plots,
Feet quick to run to evil, (1)A false witness testifying lies,
And one who incites brothers to quarrel.

-Proverbs 6:12-19


(1) For that which is of Allah (Hashem) is not within their hearts and they know Him not; but rather, iniquity is always in their thoughts and actions in all that they do in this life. When one in gives them honey in kindness, they always give lemon in return hurriedly without thought of the harmful consequences of their past or future endeavors.

Pure Soul

You may look just like other people, even wear the same clothes, not always what is in one’s head that makes you different; but what is most pleasing to Allah (Hashem) is what is in your soul. -HRM Deborah

A Shower of Blessings

A person’s value is by what Allah (Hashem, G-d) does for them and not by their monetary value. For even a person forced to live with great hardships even to be subjected to a prison, Allah (Hashem, G-d) will make the sun shine and shower the greatest riches of blessings upon that person by there faith and doing that which He commands. -HRM Deborah
