The Grace Of Lord
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Fall asleep. Meet the dreams. Calm, quiet, secure. Tomorrow, you have something to make it right.
Just wake up. Open your eyes and begin your day. Take a breath, feel the fresh that’s coming through the window.
You can still breathe, you can still look around. And, what things that came out from you first?
Morning’s still greeting from the east. The birds are singing along to cheer you up. The sky still stands sturdy up above. The sun everlastingly lights up the entire world. The clouds cover you from wild sunlight. Fire warms you from the cold. And what things that came out from you first?
The eyes still enjoy the colorful every side. Mouth still greets people. Nose is free to feel every air from the outside. Ears can still listen up to. Then, tell me what is in your mind when you have everything alongside?
I call these as grace. How God is everlastingly beside me, you, us, and everybody around the world.
I know these are the grace of God. How He loves us and never abandons His cratures. How God cares us as He alwasy delivers anything we need to keep living in this world.
Just imagine, if God stop delivering us the air just for one minute; if God makes the sun closer to the earth; if He wants to wash away the atmosphere of the entire world for one minute; the sea move to the land for some times; fire can’t warm us in the cold weather; daylight turns to dark; big earthquake occurs every time.
Just imagine, God takes our nose so we can’t breathe; God blinds the eyes; let a strong noise deafen our ears; the land surface full of thorns that’s hurting our feet. What if God wanted to do this at the same time? Just imagine He would to, where’d we run? Where’d we take cover?
Don’t you know every day is began that’s because of Him? That the sun and moon replace their job every time, the storms come and leave anytime, years keep substituting, the death displaced by newborn. That every tragedy keep happening everytime, these are taking place as God has set these for His creatures.
So which of favour of your Lord would you deny? (Holy Qur’an, Ar-Rahman)
This time to thank Allah, this time to grateful to our Lord, The Eternal; The Immortal.
Don’t we ever try to count every grace that Allah delivers us as we can’t and never be. Don’t ever think we are the only ones who carry big serious burdens in our lives. No… not at all.
But don’t stop to grateful everlastingly, until then… until the end… until we pass away.
And since Allah is the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. Just begin and done your days by remembering Him and He will everlastingly alongside us. Forever.
