O Lord, whatever share of this world
You could give me,
Give it to your enemies:
Whatever share of the next world
You want to give to me –
Give it to your friends.
You are enough for me.
O God, my whole concern and desire in the world,
Is that I should always remember you
Above all things of this world,
And that in the next
I should meet with you alone.
That is why I always pray: “Your will be done.”
O my Lord,
if I worship you
from fear of hell, burn me in hell.
If I worship you
from hope of Paradise, bar me from its gates
But if I worship you
for yourself alone, grant me then the beauty of your face.
Rabi`a
Quaerite Et Invenietis “Seek and you will find”
“There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed”
May God bless and protect you and…
May you always be
Healthy, Happy
Safe and Comfortable
Keep smiling, keep shining.
