Did you know that the eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?
Well, the eagle will fly to some high spot and wait for the winds to come. When the storm hits, it sets its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle is soaring above it. The eagle does not escape the storm. It simply uses the storm to lift it higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm.
Hence, when the storms of life come upon us - in fact, all of us will experience them - we can rise above them by setting our minds and our belief towards God...The Almighty. The storms do not have to overcome us. We can allow God's power to lift us above them. God enables us to ride the winds of the storm that bring sickness, tragedy, failure and disappointment in our lives. We can soar above the storm.
It is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we handle them. There is nothing in the world so much admired as a man who knows how to bear unhappiness with courage. The ideal man bears the accidents of life with dignity and grace, making the best of circumstances. One man with courage makes a majority and what separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate...
Gosh...do i sound like a religious teacher, or a nun ??!! Hah...i'm a Muslim anyway...
Allah swt Maha Adil dan Maha Mengetahui...Dia tidak akan menguji kita lebih dari yang termampu oleh kita sebagai hamba Nya. Kita diuji kerana Dia masih sayangkan kita. UjianNya akan menguatkan keimanan kita padaNya, insyaAllah. Bersyukurlah...
Soyez reconnaissants. Dieu nous a testé coz Il nous aime ...
