Jeda is a woman like so many others-washing dishes with one hand, answering emails with the other, rocking a baby with her foot, and carrying the weight of motherhood, marriage, work, and faith with everything she has... yet still feeling as though it's never quite enough.
In a moment of exhaustion and honesty, she cries out to God, "Why didn't you give women more arms if we're supposed to do so much?" His answer doesn't come in words, but in an unexpected journey.
Transferred to a new world called Rava'el, Jeda becomes a child again under the care of a divine guide named Hadiya. In this world, girls grow six arms as they mature-symbols of productivity, capability, and womanhood. Trained to serve, provide, and lead, Jeda excels in her ability to do it all...and is praised for it. Yet the more she accomplishes, the more something essential slips quietly away.
Through encounters with three wise guides:
- Sophia - wisdom and understanding
- Ilham - inspiration and divine revelation
- Harmony - relationship with God and others
Jeda begins to realize that true wholeness is not found in relentless striving, but in surrender.
A modern parable for the overwhelmed woman, The Arms of Jeda invites readers to step out of survival mode and into a sacred partnership with the One who carries it all.
