My Journey Towards God.

[Faris_Mee]

No where in my understanding is there room for Fear. The reason for this is perhaps only that my vocabulary is more specific - certainly there are a lot of extra words in english in the first place.


in the face of God, I feel humility - that is, a deep understanding (even in the emotional sense here) that God is vast, and that I can no more oppose his will than I could oppose my own. It is expressed necessarily through every thought or action. And so I feel humility (as opposed to my own definition of fear), under that which is the highest Authority, coupled with Faith that this Authority does not abuse me, but rather guides and enlightens me.


I do not Fear Hell - not because I do not believe that there are negative consequences to our worldly actions; I do, but I also believe that we experience after this life the same pain and suffering that we put into the world.


if this business of the Fear of God is not aligned yet, then we must perhaps begin talking of it without using the word 'Fear' - I have found that by altering the way we express an idea, it's label or word, we can ellicit the true nature of the concept itself, free of labels and their restrictive boundaries.

Hi Mahasvapna


Ponder over this please;


<b>Allah coineth a similitude: A man in relation to whom are several part owners, quarrelling, and a man belonging wholly to one man. Are the two equal in similitude? Praise be to Allah! But most of them know not.</b>39:29
