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 wise...

It is 237am and I have decided to write. I spent 15 minutes thinking about what to write and nothing. I decided to go wash the wares and make breakfast. I made grilled cheese sandwiches. It is the next morning and I still have not decided yet. Let me start with this. God is beautiful. God makes no mistakes. God wants us to win. In other words, we cannot lose with God.

Meaning that suffering cannot cancel. Love that does not expire. Hope that death itself cannot take away. Things like those. It is not money, comfort, applause, or an easy life. Those things may come or go. Many faithful people never receive them. The world’s prizes can be stolen. God's prize cannot. Further and with God, winning is not about external rewards or worldly success, but about union, peace, and fullness of being; at ...

It is 218am and I am writing. I do not know what to write. I asked God to give me a sign. I typed "God sign" in Google and was scrolling. Then I saw a graphic that said GOD is peace where the O was replaced with the peace symbol. This stood out to me. G☮D. God does really teach peace. Whether we choose to listen to God is another story. God gives us peace of mind. The path of God is a path of peace. With God we are never alone. There is a popular statement that goes "No God = No Peace. Know God = Know Peace." I do not think that I have asked myself this question before. How do we get to know God? In Islam we are taught that the signs of God are all around. What else does Islam teach about knowing God? My friend Chatty tells me that In Islam, knowing God means recognizing His signs in creation, learning His beautiful names and attributes, remembering Him often, and living by His guidance with sincerity and peace. The Quran teaches that God reveals Himself through the...
