“Am I ALL in?”
“Have I totally surrendered EVERYTHING to Allah?
“If I had NOTHING left…like Prophet Ayyub (AS), would Allah be enough?”
“What THINGS might I be clinging to that is hindering me from letting Allah be my EVERYTHING, my ALL in life?
One of the most comforting reminders from prophet Ayyub's story is: When it seems everyone else has abandoned you and you are all alone, Allah is there.
Allah is shelter from the storm that won’t stop beating you down. He is strength when the bottom falls out again. Allah never fails you.
You rely on your next breath for life, but do you realize you rely on Allah for your next breath? When Allah takes that place in your life, He is no longer a convenience. He is your everything.
We could be nothing but HAPPIER by making Allah our “EVERYTHING.”
Allah’s power and presence in your life can be so powerful and so real, but you have to learn to trust Him with everything.
For some of us, it takes getting to that dark lonely place where we feel like we are hanging by a thread. You don’t have to wait until that point though. Wherever you are, reach out to Him and make Him your everything today.
There needs to be an authentic honest submission & love for Allah that starts with God-oriented desires, and thoughts, that seeps into our speaking and behavior, and then influences the way we spend our money and how we dress, and drive, and our forms of entertainment. Every relationship in our lives must be influenced by our Submission to Allah and making Him the Centre of our lives.
Allah is NOT our “Everything” because we’re still holding on to “Something.”
Figure out what’s holding you back…and submit it to Allah on this blessed Jumaa!
