We have been observing the holy month of Ramadan (July 20th - Aug 18th, 2012).During this time, Arya has become more aware of us fasting and learning about the Quran and what God asks of us.
It is a lengthy fast during this period as it is in the summer where there is the most day light. However, it is also a reminder of life and how precious everything we have is. Something as simple as food and water...which are so easy for us to have are not for so many others.
The same goes for shelter and all the other necessities we have around us. It is also a time of great thanks to the ONE who has always been there for us and given us so many gifts in this life so that we will Remember Him. We can strengthen our souls in this short time by practicing control and helping our will to face the difficulties this world may throw at us.
The Power of Prayer....
Within all of us is a yearning for the Higher Power. Whether we like it or not there will be a time when no person or thing can help us. It is then that our inner self cries out. Prayer is our innate ability. Just as animals have an innate ability to do a specific task. Such applies to us. It just happens. The only difference with us is we can choose not to do it. But that "voice" inside you wants it. So why resist? See what happens. Miracles do exist. And that which we do not know to be the Higher Power or God does hear our cries and our prayers.
Nothing in this life will stay perfect forever. Things happen all the time. Good things and bad things. If it comes to bad, why not have a Higher Power on our side rather than nothing? It is a question for all...
