As I re-read my post from last November 2017 ..before winter really set in , I am struck by my resilience over this past 5 months . Not that I followed my own advice every day , I am so grateful for the grace and mercy that carried me thru these days . I can see my duas being answered ...in spite of the challenges I faced. MY OH MY , here is a miracle right before my eyes ( in written words ) .
This is what I constantly seek ---- the signs of Allah's involvement in my daily life .
Now again I am mentally preparing for Ramadan soon to commence . I have intrepidation every year examining myself in midst of examining how I have behaved. I can see from my blogs how my intent falls to me BUT I also see how behaviour may slip up . Then I watch the mercy and grace that MY Creator allows HIS forgiveness to correct me . This returns my humility and a deeper understanding of who I truly am and how I live my days .
Seeking knowledge is what our lives encompass . I now simply ask , " Please help me open my eyes and turn to YOU daily for sincere guidance ." I do know that only YOU can know what is RIGHT for each of us . Thank you for Your plans .
I KNOW THIS ... I trust and love my Creator as I watch all the cycles of life being renewed in the springtime . I seek constant REFUGE in HIM as I see my own personal strengths weakening as I age . Now is my time for permanent reflection on ME and HOPE to remain acceptable as a " wali " to MY RABB . Let me please HIM as I meander now on the path to the Hereafter.
