Ready for God's tests?

And certainly, we shall test you with Something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives, fruits, ....(Quran: 2:155).

Growing comes with so much. But above all, it comes with challanges. Some are very open while some are not. Some of them may be that you start to feel inadequate, you lack food, money, beauty, intelligence, lose your parents, are forced to change school,  and so many others.

It is not a curse neither is it your problem. No.
It is just fate. You could not have dodged it anyway. These are all tests from the almighty. They manifest in any form at any time. They are someof the things that you have to grow through in order to be very prepared for the future. This is what they call experience.

But what do you do when they approach?  Do not try to run away. Embrace them. Give glad tidings to God and above all, be patient. Nothing has ever failed patience in this world. Soon or later they will come to pass and only if you passed the test will you live to happily refer to them as experience.

And always remember, it is not only you. It is all of us and especially those that were before us.
