The Place in My Heart

娜娜

Do you have a room like that---a place where you meet with Allah? I have, that’s the place in the bottom of my heart.
Do you have a quiet retreat where you and the Lord do regular business together? If you don't, I strongly urge you to provide yourself just such a place---your own prophet's chamber where you and Allah can meet together. It will be there that you will prepare yourself for life's contingencies. Without it, you'll lack the necessary steel in your foundation of faith.
What do you do when tragedy strikes? What do you do when a test comes? What's your first response? Is it to complain? To be angry? To blame? To try to reason your way out of it? Or have you formed the habit of doing what you should do? Do you go to your special place and get alone with Allah? I, an ordinary girl, should provide an example for my little brother. No panic. No fear. No rush. No doubt.[/font
