Let God take charge of life?

I have heard so many times; even I myself am guilty of it, which people said to leave everything to God. Well, in my perspective, it is partially correct to think that way. In terms of the matters of the heart like finding your husband or soul mate, I do agree to a certain extent that we should leave it to God to decide. After all, it is all in his hands and his mercy.

Let me make a stand. I believe in God and in no way am I challenging his power. He is in control over every single creation. And with the complexity of the Universe, there is NO WAY it all happened by chance.

But isn’t ironic of me to keep saying that only we ourselves should take charge of our own life and no one else?

Well, everything is a message from God. And everything (even painful ones) happened for a reason.

I personally used to be very angry with God for making me go through such a difficult childhood. But his magic and love for us works wonders. If not because of what I had to go through during my childhood, I may not be writing this to you now. I may not have the inspirations to share my stories with hopes of inspiring others.

Some people hear the calling and messages and ACT on it. Others don’t. They simply make a statement to leave everything in God’s hands. To them, they have ‘no choice’ and let fear consume them and abandon their faith.

We are all given power to ‘choose’ from God.

When you have a goal and passion in life, you are living in alignment with what God put you here for.

God takes control of your life when you take control of your life.

He created our prophet with a mission to spread the teachings of Islam and to guide us. All of us too are created with a mission. Most people misunderstood the meaning of ‘letting God take charge of your life’. To them it is a literal meaning of surrendering everything to him. Well, if we want to get rich, we obviously know that there is no way of just praying and hoping that God will send us the money. These people are just creating an excuse to avoid responsibility for anything. They are living in fear and simply using God as an excuse.

They are not making use of the power and assets given by God. They are not fulfilling their purpose and mission on earth. All of us are created to make a positive difference in the world.

If you do NOTHING with the power and assets given and never fulfill your purpose of living, then everything you have will be taken away from you and be given to those who have achieved success in their purpose of living.

Love,
