loving someone is just as tough as loving yourself

I’ve discovered loving is difficult whether it be self-love or any other love - s.d.r

Psalms Devotional--Part VIII

Psalms Devotional--Part VIII #psalms #devotional #psalmsdevotional #hardship #Bible

We will face hardships and unwarranted attacks in our Christian life. It will seem unfair, and might rightfully be unfair. David felt this as he wrote Psalms 7.

 O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me: 2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver. 3 O Lord my God, If I have done this; if…

The great hardship in manual work is that we are compelled to expend our efforts for such long hours, simply in order to exist. The slave is he to whom no good is proposed as the object of his labor except mere existence. Accordingly, he must either be detached or fall to the vegetative level…To strive from necessity and not for some good – driven not drawn – in order to maintain our existence just as it is – that is always slavery. In this sense the slavery of manual workers is irreducible. Effort without finality. It is terrible – or the most beautiful thing of all – if it is finality without an end. The beautiful alone enables us to be satisfied by that which is. Workers need poetry more than bread. They need that their life should be a poem. They need some light from eternity…Deprivation of this poetry explains all forms of demoralization.

Hardships and Human Foolishness.

SubhanAllah. As i live in this world I am shown again and again how foolish we humans can be and this is regarding myself. I know for a fact that Allah tests you to bring him closer to you and that he does it for the better of you and for reasons that you cannot comprehend. 

On friday I was shown this once again. I instantly went into depression and forgot Allah the creator that has created life and death and depression and happiness and the one in control of my happiness! I always look back and feel like such a food for it subhanAllah. Looking back at what happened I ended up realizing that it actually helped me in a way that i couldn’t imagine.

My lesson to myself first is to always trust in Allah and never question the hardship I am going through because it not only makes you stronger but has other blessings that benefit you that you cannot comprehend because it is the ghayb (unseen)! sometimes something happens because it will save your life but we have no clue since we can’t see all of the possible scenarios that could have happened. 

Only Allah Azawajal knows and he knows whats best for us. All we have to do is put all of our trust into Allah Azawajal; the creator of all existence.
