The answer is God

Image
By
It is 308pm and I have decided to write. Make God a priority. Let God lead the way. Let everything be about God. Let God into your life. Surround yourself with God and watch how everything begins to make sense.

This life is not an accident. This life is not happenstance. This life is the work of an all-powerful Creator. Nothing is too big or too small for God. Take your problems to God. Take your worries to God. Take your fears to God. Let go and let God. Submit to the will of God.

The more you go to God, the more He comes to you. Start small. Start somewhere. Give God a chance if you have not done so already.

Why do I say all of this? There are many things competing for your attention and your soul. In the midst of all of this, the world can seem like a confusing place where many things do not make sense. God brings clarity. God brings clarity because God sits above it all.

You may think you do not need God until you do. Ask yourself, who is the wisest you know? If God is not the wisest then who is?*

Is it possible to find the same level of clarity without God? Can you find someone who is wiser than God? I doubt it very much, but I cannot answer that question with certainty as I am not the wisest. Let God speak to you for Himself. My experience has led me to God. My gut feeling tells me that God is the way. All the signs I have seen point to God. God gave us the answer in faith to test us.

I do not claim to have all the answers. I can only speak from what I have seen, felt, and lived. When I look back on my life, I see God's hand at work in ways I did not recognize at the time. What once seemed confusing now makes more sense. What once felt overwhelming became manageable when I placed it before God.

The world offers many paths, many voices, and many promises. Yet I have found peace in turning toward God. I have found comfort in prayer, strength in faith, and hope in trusting that there is a purpose greater than myself.

If you are searching, keep searching. If you are struggling, keep going. If you are uncertain, do not be afraid to seek God. You may be surprised by what you find.

*They say that if you are the wisest in a room you are in the wrong room. I say that you are never the wisest in any room. God is. You do not need to change rooms, just bring God into the room.

Faith

By
This is a chapter from my latest book called (G)rains (o)f san(d)s. Learn more about the book here . Thank you God for faith. We say we want to meet God but we already do in some ways. We meet God in his creation. We meet God every time we meet someone. We meet God every time we meet the animals. We meet God every time we meet nature. God is all around. Faith is when we can see this. This is God's world. We are God's work. We are testimony of his greatness. Everyday that goes by I think about God. Everyday I thank God for his mercy. I take my problems to God. I pray to God. God is at the center of my life. Nothing happens without the will of God and therefore I would be wise to submit to the will of God. God is in the everyday moments. God loves when we love. What is the simplest definition of faith? I think it is found in the phrase, let go and let God. I asked my friend the same question. My friend says that at its simplest, faith is trust in what you cannot see or prove. But...

Softness

By
This is a chapter from my latest book called (G)rains (o)f san(d)s. Learn more about the book here . Thank you God for softness. The gentleness of prayer. The calmness of the heart. The patience of the mind. The soft sounds of nature. The cool breezes of shade. The slow movement of sand in the hand. The kindness of strangers. The soothing voices of Quran. The warm embrace of the azan. I move through life with softness in my heart. I move through life with joy. I move through life wishing good for others. There is a peace that comes with being soft. The angels surround those who are soft. Soft like the winds of heaven. Soft like the clouds in the sky. Easy like Friday morning. May I never lose this softness that allows me to see beauty and goodness in everything and everyone. The world tries to harden me but I refuse. I walk upon the earth softly. I love without fear. My every breath is a prayer of gratitude. Let my heart remain like grains of sand in the hands of God that are softly he...

Light

By
This is a chapter from my latest book called (G)rains (o)f san(d)s. Learn more about the book here . Thank you God for light. The Quran is the light of mankind. The Quran is the light of this life. The Quran is the delight of the heart. God is the source of this light. The Quran is a miracle. God shine your light on my path and bring ease with it. Though I may struggle on your path, let me keep returning to where your light shines. What do I notice by looking at the word light? G stands in the middle of light. G for God. One side we have li for life and on the other side we have ht which is short for hayat or life in Arabic. I am almost through reading the English Quran for a second time. Today I passed surah 61 verse 6 which states that Jesus had announced the coming of the prophet (peace be upon him). That verse stood out to me out of all the verses I have read so far. Muhammad (pbuh) was the one tasked with bringing the light of the Quran for mankind. I just noticed that the end of ...
