Today I want to take to you something that is very dear to my heart.


Not too long ago, I was faced with a choice that truly scared me to the point of wanting to disappear. In my heart, I know what the right choice was but I was terrified.. because if I did that.. if I did I would have to go through a lot of pain and heartache.. and I didn't want that.
.
That's when I remember coming across this aya.

A message from Allah loud and clear.

يَاأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَحُولُ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَقَلْبِهِ وَأَنَّهُ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ(24) ﴾. ( سورة الأنفال).

⇢ What I Learned:

It's amazing how the things that we think would break us (and even if they did in the beginning) are the exact same things that Allah promises will give us life. And He always keeps His promise.

Talk to Him. Tell him how you feel and what you're afraid of. Ask Him for what you need. Have a conversation with Him.

والحمدلله الذي جعل التشكي اليه عبادة

Quran is basically God talking to us and Prayer is us talking to him, and you can't get to know someone and have a relationship with him unless you take to them and spend time with them.


Coaching Question:

• Is there an area in your life where you feel like Allah has been guiding and calling you to a path that might seem daunting and scary?

• What would it take for you to believe that the path has a life beyond what you and I can understand and see and that his promise is true but we might not be able to see it until we chose to take it?
