Song for Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords & Tucson Shooting Victims

A dear friend of mine, Renee Morgan Brooks, who has been featured on Dare2create before, shared with me a week or so ago that was working on a new song.  In her daily meditation and prayers she had been guided to prepare this song.  She shared the title with me and told me that she was unveiling it on Sunday January 9th, 2011.  On Saturday 8th, 2011 the state of Arizona, the U.S. and the world in general was shocked and deeply saddened by the shootings in Tucson. 

Many of us, in our own way, wanted to send a message of condolence, support and love to those affected by this tragedy and also to declare that we stand on the side of love and peace.           

Renee sang the song she had been preparing on Sunday January 9th at Unity of Phoenix in all 3 of their services.  It took on a far greater meaning to her as to why she had been "called" to prepare this song and those who heard Renee sing the song: "We Can Be Kind" by David Friedman, stood in unity of the message in the song at the end of Renee’s performance. 

Renee’s performance of this song is dedicated to Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and all those who were who were killed or injured in the shooting in Tucson. It is also dedicated to Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik and President Obama. May we all return to kindness and sanity.  

SINGER: Renee Morgan Brooks PIANIST: Jerry Wayne Harkey DRUMMER: Mark Stoper

Prayers for Shooting Victims Tucson

Tonight my heart, along with so many others is saddened by the senseless violence that took place in Tucson, Arizona today. As a former co-director of the AZ Dept of Peace Campaign I had the honor of having lunch with Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords a few years ago. This evening she and all who were affected by this tragedy are in the hearts and prayers of people all over Arizona, across the nation and throughout the world.  There have been many prayer and candlelight vigils throughout the country, especially in AZ and Washington.  I, together with several friends, attended the one at the AZ State Capitol.   

Let us, wherever we are join together in prayer:

Divine Beloved Spirit, God, who is LOVE we accept for Gabrielle healing and recovery. We also accept strength and coura.…..ge for her family and guidance for the medical team that is assisting her. For all who were injured in the shooting today we accept wholeness and health. For the loved ones of those who lost their lives today we accept that they are lifted up with comfort and support in their grief and loss. We are grateful that this prayer is heard and answered now and release it knowing that it is so. Amen.
