He is enough for me and you too

 May His peace, blessings and mercy be upon you now and always. Hope you have been well enough fam.

How hard are things? Seeming impossible? There is no hope lurking to show its face fully at last minute? Especially as Nigerians things are not getting easier for a lot of us.

Who do you turn to? That privileged friend? That affluent neighbor? The successful looking business woman? The very philanthropic lady that always has enough to give out? Or do you go to the One who parted the seas for his prophet Moses (AS), the One who gave a virgin the ability to birth a boy, the One who gave the old Zachariah(AS) a son, got Yunus (AS) safely out of the whale’s belly, the One who saved Abraham (AS) from the raging blazing fire and became a source of coolness for him. The One who is First, Last and Only.

His tests may be severe but He is the most merciful. He tests the servants He loves the most to help them. For example so they can get closer to Him. Look at how He tested His prophets. He loves them the most. They are the chosen ones.

When hardship shows its ugly face remember Allah’s promises in the Qur’an. He promised that after hardship comes ease. He promised to never burden a soul with more than they can bear. And He stated firmly in His Qur’an that he is the most kind to His servants.

I do not doubt this. Like my Christian brothers will say He is a miracle working God. He truly is and he is enough for me (HASBUNALLAHU WA NI’IMAL WAKIL).  

Lots of love,

Mariya.
