Читаем The only right way полностью

To please your Creator, regularly replenish your supply of good deeds that don't need to be publicized, and don't expect any reward for them. Remember that you are preparing for the most important meeting of your life — a meeting with the Lord God. It is at this meeting that you will receive your reckoning for the whole of your life. Good deeds are not only a physical help, but also an emotional effort. To do this, you must focus on faith and service every day. Serving God does not have to be conspicuous. It is, as they say, a way of life. It is important to put the right information, the true information, and the false information in the right place in your mind. After that, live, try not to violate God's laws, and work on yourself in spiritual efforts: restrain anger, pray, meditate, learn the Bible and the Qur'an in peace and quiet, and worship the Most High. Act wisely and do not make mistakes in life.

In the book of ECCLESIASTES in the Bible, there is a very memorable and thought-provoking phrase: "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, For this is mańs all". So vast, so profound, that the subconscious mind, if not the soul, shudders when read in the context of the Bible. A clear understanding and realization of inevitability comes. Everything in life pales into insignificance before the mere thought that one day it will all come to an end here and you will stand in front of your Creator. You will be shown all that you have done, and you will be held accountable. And your life in eternity will depend on that moment. There comes the realization of the need to fight every kind of temptation in life: physical, mental, and spiritual. There comes the understanding that earthly riches are dust, nothing more. Appropriately, there is a saying in the Holy Qur'an: "The most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most God-fearing among you."

A godly servant is God-fearing, patient, humble, alms-giving, and forgiveness-seeking. And to leave this world godly is the highest reward and gift from the Almighty.

No matter how difficult it may be, always try to please God, realizing at every moment that He is looking at you. And it will be difficult, for it is said, "You [believers] will surely be tested in your wealth and yourselves."

God's ways are mysterious: "How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!" You can never be sure how righteous a person is. Sometimes people think that someone is a criminal, an unbeliever, just a bad person who is doing well in life, and they agonize over the question: "How can God give good things to such a person? In fact, that person may be more righteous than many who think that way.

Don't look around, don't judge, and don't put a stigma on anyone. After all, you don't know if you, given the opportunity and the power, would have done any better than the one you're judging. Perhaps someone else in his place would be incomparably worse.

Be righteous and you will see that in time you will be truly happy. Happiness is given only to those who are faithful to God.

Everyone has the opportunity to be happy in this life and forever in the next. Do not miss this opportunity, for all the rules are prescribed and they are very simple. Live according to the laws sent to us by our Creator. Be acceptable to God and do not rush the time — you will see what you get.

The clear sign

God created us all "to test which of you is best in deeds" (Qur'an). For this purpose, the Creator made us "micro-gods" endowed with freedom of thought, intention, and action. Everyone always has a choice, if not physically, then mentally, morally, and spiritually. To this end, we are placed in an environment where many have become unbelievers. Our reality is overflowing with temptations and trials in which we are free to make choices. Choices between good and evil. We are boiling in our human cauldron called the Earth. We see no clear evidence, no signs, no angels. Humans make their own choices in everything, including faith. Only in this way can God's purpose of seeing which of us is more righteous be realized.

We can assume that the Almighty could have determined everything in the first place, so why check? And you try to realize even a fraction of God's infinite greatness. You will come to the fact that we live in the thought of God, our whole life, the Universe and the present are defined, it is the thought of God out of the infinite number of other thoughts, and we live in it.

Everything is already defined and verified. The Creator is so great that man can only live his life in His thoughts in which He has already verified our souls. Life is a long journey for us, but in the true divine reality, it is only a moment.
