Think what you’ve already been given – after that, think of this:
His Mercy outweighs His Kindness.

The News is Disturbing
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Disturbing, News, Temporary Abode on December 30, 2008 | 1 Comment »
This day I’m extremely thankful and relieved to know God is All-Seeing and All Knowing. The news is disturbing – really disturbing and I have loved ones on both sides of the current conflict. Both are certain the other side is guilty and their “sides” are the poor innocent victims. Oh my God – please [...]
Destroyer of Idols

Prophet Abraham was a destroyer of false gods. I find it interesting that people of the three “major” religions say he was their Prophet. Is it because they think the false gods he destroyed were just hand made statues and an easy enough deed for them to emulate? Or was his act symbolic of one [...]

This morning I read:
It is God Who has made for you the earth as a resting place, and the sky as a canopy, and has given you shape – and made your shapes beautiful – and has Provided for you sustenance, of things pure and good. Such is God, your Lord. So Glory to God, [...]
A Really Good Plan
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Commercial, Holidays on December 27, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Some people are a “tad” short tempered over the “holidays”. It’s easy to understand them – they’re over worked, over rushed, overly put upon to out perform and called upon to provide gifts, food, and entertainment for more people than they usually do. They’re also expected to do all that in addition to their already [...]
Quality or Quantity

Which do you choose – quantity or quality? In friendship I definitely want more of the quality. Friends who are good companions, who remind me of What is important, tell me when I’m wrong, set a good example, encourage appropriate behavior and use positive words. A quantity of friends would mean more talking, more [...]
Talkative?

Loquacious means talkative, long winded, and wordy. What about the young people who barely speak with their voices but constantly chat by texting. Shall we call them “textacious”?

How often do we spend time being upset over someone’s words or something that happened long ago – something that we definitely cannot change? We rant and rave and raise our blood pressure and even upset others by pulling them into our frustration. Let’s face it – if it happened – it happened. It’s finished, [...]

In Farid Ad-din Attars’ “Conference of The Birds” we read:
“God nourished you in Love and Holy Pride
but ignorance detains you from His Side.”
Get smart!

Every raindrop is an angel who comes to earth, and stays. Angels inspire us to do good deeds. Go out and get a few on your head and shoulders, then go do something for someone other than yourself.
God’s Will or Yours

In the beginning we were all with God, Almighty and Glorious is He. We were in different forms then, sometimes called spirits or souls or hearts. The Most Kind provided all things for us and we were content. Then some of these souls or spirits were about to complain, as they wanted to do things [...]
