Iran and Pilgrims Criticised Saudi after Hajj Stampede Kills more than 700.

 

Yesterday, many of us watched videos and looked at the effect of the stampede that left many pilgrims dead. I was personally too in shock to write about it until now. Presently, the blame shifting has begun and Iran is seriously pained after losing about 90 of her people. They are blaming Saudi for not taking proper precaution in keeping the lives of visitors safe during the yearly pilgrimage. 

However, Saudi authourities are blaming the pilgrims for not following instructions. 

But pilgrims claim there was no crowd control, hence the disaster that occurred killing hundreds of people and leaving great numbers injured.

Kemi Oyedepo Spells Out the Roles of Husbands To their Wives.

 

 Kemi Oyedepo is the wife of the first son of the founder of the Living Faith Church, David Oyedepo jnr. She has helped and still helping many families to 'Crisis Proof their families.' And also, to keep singles from making mistakes in taking marital decisions.

"It's important that as a husband, you take time to invest in your wife. What do you do to build her up? How do you help her grow spiritually and otherwise? What do you do to challenge her? What do you do to affirm her? How do you help her weaknesses? She is not the only one who should be helping you. Don't marry her and just leave her to herself; you must pour into her and her progress must be evident for all to see. You can't be moving forward spiritually, intellectually, and otherwise while she is still on the same spot since the day you met her. That is unfair and it shouldn't be ok by you. It says a lot about you as her husband! Don't be the one tearing her down! The making of your wife is in your hands so do something.

Temperature would be 72 always; snow would be warm, melting overnight; and there'd be no nasty people.

As she struggled to fight back the memories, Dennis was having a struggle of his own. Frustrated and confused, he held her hands tight. Praying in a way he didn't know he could. Life has always been good, hence he felt no need for vehement prayers. He laughed at himself over the numerous times his family had ribbed him about his very short kind of prayers.

Dennis closed his eyes trying to pray some more but the memories rushed through his mind. He'd prefer to be in her position, suffering, if there’s a possibility of a switch. He desperately wants to get into her mind and absorb all of her pain. He felt helpless like a lifeless man, not knowing what to do. He tried to block the memories out of his mind. Maybe if he can successfully do that, she too maybe able to get pass the blockage. But, no strong will could hold them back as his mind got flooded with every scene. They found themselves in that horrific scene together as if there’s a bridge between their minds.
