Salam.
Hope everyone is well.
With a lot of things happening at the moment, I am further convinced to act and spend my energy and time towards things that will benefit me grandly, not only for filling the voids or just because. In simpler term, if the act is not pleasing to my Lord, I can skip it. There is no point of spending my energy, time and money towards something so impermanent.
I feel humbled seeing the struggle of fellow Palest*nian people, appalled by impunity from the other side and I feel relief and hopeful that I live in a country with its people are mostly holding tight to humanity values. We are free to express our support that align with our values and practise our own faith without being ridiculed.
During one of the class that I have attended, the speaker shared that the reason our Lord made us able to witness all this cruelty is not to cause us weeping, sobbing and act nothing. Our Lord want to test us to see what kind of reflection we will have for our own fleeting life here, and what kind of action we will take to help, the effort that we will inspired to do in helping others and improve ourselves.
This reminds me that no act is too little for our Lord. Everything is seen and recorded.
