Poem..In the valleys I grow

[UmmAiman]

<b>In the valleys I grow</b>

Sometimes life seems hard to bear,

Full of sorrow, trouble and woe

It's then I have to remember

That it's in the valleys I grow.

If I always stayed on the mountain top

And never experienced pain,

I would never appreciate Allah's love

And would be living in vain.

I have so much to learn

And my growth is very slow,

Sometimes I need the mountain tops,

But it's in the valleys I grow.

I do not always understand

Why things happen as they do,

But I am very sure of one thing.

My Allah will see me through.

My little valleys are nothing

When I picture My bros' & Sis

The valleys of death Which they go through

In Countries such Palestine etc...

Forgive me Allah, for complaining

When I'm feeling so very low.

Just give me a gentle reminder

That it's in the valleys I grow.

Continue to strengthen me, Allah

And use my life each day

To share your love with others

And help them find their way.

Thank you for valleys, Allah

For this one thing I know

The mountain tops are glorious

But it's in the valleys I grow!

REMEMBER...

The shortest distance between a problem and a solution

is the distance between your knees and the floor.

The one who kneels to the Allah,

can stand up to anything.

Insha'Allah
