Message from God V

Bear humility in the face of God.
Accept that victory is
hollow without love.

Humble yourself to other’s taunts
wether there is truth in them or not.
You don’t have to accept,
but if you don’t
heed God’s discipline,
he will make you kneel.

Message from God IV

Peace can be radical
when it takes no prisoners,
no casualties,
but
defeats war,
conquers fear,
and vanquishes ignorance.

Message from God III

Go easy on God.
He was young once too.
He made mistakes,
was rash,
angry,
jealous,
grandiose,
gauche
and judgemental.

As the mountains age,
so does God.

His wrinkles do us proud.

Message from God II

Passion is its own reward.
When fighting for something
you believe in,
better to live a thousand lives in one day,
than a thousand years in one life.

Message from God I

It is fitting that
God should appear
in the world and
partake of pain and
sadness.

His strength comes
from knowing the limitations of
creation and having the
guts to own it.

To see your offspring feel pain,
and to live through it,
and not give up when your
heart is breaking;
is the crown God wears.

That is why,
when you need him,
you only have to call.
He’ll pick up.
Whether you hear him is up to you.

While at my table one day. . .

You are going to think I have lost it but a few years ago I was sitting at my kitchen table scribbling some notes for a book that I was going to write. It is hard to describe how I felt that day but strange is a good start. I started writing and everything was fine until I felt a force guiding me away from topic. Being a very disciplined person when I am writing, I tried to switch back but was continually blocked.

After I submitted and gave in, I realised I was getting a message from somewhere. I recognised the source and went with it. It was the most unconscious writing I have ever done and I hardly remember writing it. It was all over in about half an hour.

The feeling I had when I was writing it was a feeling of supreme power and elation. I have only felt this feeling on four other occasions. It was like all of my conscious ego had gone and all human pain was absent. I'm sure that people must feel like this on heroin or in religious ecstasy. All I know is that it was a gift that if people got more often, the world wouldn't be in the mess it is now.

I had an overwhelming feeling I should publish it and that in doing so I should not profit. So here it is. I will put an new post on every day and I will differentiate these posts from my others so that you know the source. I will call them, 'A Message from God.'

From a Christian to the Ummah. . .

To all Muslims on this happy day. Felicitations to you on Eid. May Allah bestow all His blessings upon your house. Inshallah.
