Let the hopes fly freely
One of the weapon of shaitan is making us depressed and feeling hopeless in life.
Let's talk about this weapon of enemy & simple self counselling techniques for effectively fight and win the competition with the enemy.
Today we would share story of Sara who is a mother, working professional in a full time high demand setup, she is having a husband with more than usual household demands and less than usual times of satisfaction at home. Although he tries to be co-operative but by nature he has a "not easily satisfying" attitude.
Sara came home today almost 1 and quarter hour late, as we can see it was a heavy work day. After coming home she realised that she promised with little bunny that she will accompany him to park but that hour is already passed and now it is time for little one to sleep as he has to wake up early for school.
His 3 years old was very upset and said in a bad mood, “Mama i don't need you, you are not a good mama and i don't like to see you even, you can go back from where you come”. than she listened “I don’t love you mama”
After taking some time he was able to sleep though still bit angry, than Sara prepared meal for herself and husband who was also hungry, dinner was ready soon but when they started to eat at table, Sara realised she forget to put salt in the meal as her brain was busy rethinking little one's talks. Husband was already hungry and being late for dinner he was also upset, he left the table without eating instead of putting salt simply. Sara was sitting alone and her appetite has vanished.
"The Depressed mind" due to just simple things and attitudes takes everything negative. This is the best point when shaitan come to make the negative thoughts more worse.
Sara thought: “no one loves her, not even her own son? she is a failure, total failure, she is not a good wife, not a good mother even, she is not able to take care of family”
Tears slipped from her eyes without realising, than she thought:”she is not been loved at all as she does not deserve anyone’s love. Why God has to made her and if even made, why He made her like this, total failure.”
Than she remember at workplace she was also gone through a problem which is yet to resolve. Again she thought: “its her fault as she cannot communicate herself well as she is not able to do her work properly, in all ways, she is a failure and does not deserve any good in life”.
These thought are, the point to recognise it. Shaitan is active to give your initial negative thoughts a boost. A boost which can lead to suicidal thoughts at it's extreme. Shaitan tries his best to show you his way instead of the way of hope which is ALLAH's way. Don’t ever let him deceive you at this point, this is a limit where you have to compete your enemy actively.
Wait ! before you go, look at Sara, she was crying and suddenly she felt two small arms crossing over her neck from behind saying “mama, I love you, I need to tell you this before sleeping”. Sara saw the clock with blurring eyes due to tears it’s too late for him to stay awake, she was about to say something but she left spellbound as she saw her husband with a take away pack in his hands, from her favorite restaurant.
Give time to the situation to cool down before you conclude yourself unworthy and most useless person in the world.
HOLD ON!!!!
People have different natures and different ways of expressions, some say it, some do it and others just imagine in their mind that you will know, all types of people are around us, so don’t estimate your value according to the other’s reactions.
You are valuable enough as ALLAH made you Human, He gave you respect as Human and moreover He made you Muslim by showing His love to you, He took care of your soul with His book.
How can you leave the hope in that Merciful Rab.
