Friday Morning - ...and God did not take your life last night

107. My Dear Creation

If you wish to serve Me

Then serve my servants

For I am not needful of your services

But they are.

And If you wish to love Me

Then love my servants

For I am not needful of your love

But they are.

Do this both

And you shall find in Me

A fair recompense

Beyond your happiest hopes.

Hi sunshine! It is Friday morning already! Let us try to be good to each other, while God is good to us always. There is time now to pick up the phone and call that old auntie of yours. There is time now to reply to your friend's SMS and ask for her forgiveness. There is time now to repay the debt you owe your school friend. There is still time to email your brother about the help he asked of you last week. 

For you see, while you slept soundly in bed, the whole of the Universe bore witness that God did not take your life last night. No, He must have felt that there is still good for you to do upon this Earth, and in His generous and all-knowing wisdom, He has permitted your soul to return to your body from its nightly travels. 

So here we are, you and I. Brothers and sisters united in the love of God, fellow travelers in the the journey through the Consciousness of God. What shall we do today? 

wa min Allah at-taufiq

Hate has no place in Islam

Love will show the Way
