Faith, Hope & Prayers

At last got some vigour and inspiration to come on blog as the constant news coming in of massive devastations in so many parts of Pakistan had completely sucked the energy out of me.

It almost felt guilty to sit comfortably in our homes and to talk about trivial things of life, a luxury, and the only wish which would come in these times is that every single person in the country must be peaceful & secured. Having said that it is also imperative in these times to be tremendously and profoundly grateful for all the countless great things which we all are blessed with.

Still we want to know that why there is so much destruction and agony everywhere we turn around; I guess to understand the workings of God is rather an impossible task to achieve. It’s quite like a man-made landscape which when we see can comprehend easily because a mind like ours has manufactured it. On the other hand, if we go to a real and natural forest all we can see is trees and shrubs growing everywhere and in every direction, all of it would appear to be overwhelming and extremely confusing; of course it is incomprehensible to a human mind as it is not created by another human rather it is the creation of Nature or God. To a human mind it might look chaotic nevertheless behind all that apparent disorder there is a perfect order, an ideal mechanism is at work there. So it might feel like the problems that Pakistan is facing now are beyond our understanding and baffling yet we need to realize that a perfect order is working behind it.

And all that is required from us is to have faith and pray, because prayers are the medium of miracles.

I apologize if what I wrote has distressed any of you; please know that it wasn’t deliberate however under the circumstances this is the best I could do.

In prayers for a better, peaceful & a merry tomorrow for everyone.
