"Allah, on this day, make my efforts worthy of appreciation, and my sins forgiven, my deeds accepted, my flaws concealed, O the best of those who hear."
As Ramadan comes to a close, I am sensitive to being sure that I remain as focused as I possibly can. I am still holding out for some breakthroughs. I'm not sure how to explain it or put it into words...
This prayer today was very real to me. There were very specific situations that I anticipated today and I felt this was right on time. I don't feel like I was able to follow through though. I am reminding myself...again...to trust God. If I say it to myself once, I say it a dozen times a day...trust God. Trust God. Trust God. I wish I could say more tonight- something that is profound and encouraging to someone...but I can't.
God, hear me. God, who hears and gives me ears to hear....hear my cry, hear my plea, hear my need. You are the best of those who hear...allow my spirit, which knows God and the spirit of God, to understand Your ways and Your thoughts. Make my efforts worthy of YOUR appreciation. I was created for YOU. Help me to trust YOUR plan. God, hear me. God, who hears and gives me ears to hear....hear my cry, hear my plea, hear my need.
"They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings as eagles. They shall run and not grow weary, they shall walk and not faint. Teach me Lord, Teach me Lord to wait."
