If only man were to truly discover God, he would become totally absorbed in the Lord’s wondrous feats of creation. How incredible it is that God should fashion something so wonderful out of things of least monetary value. It is only God who can bring the dead to life; only He who has the power to convert insensate matter into conscious life, to make something out of nothing. If a magician were to cast a spell on a stone, making it break into speech, everyone would be spellbound at this extraordinary feat. The feat which God has performed is one of much greater complexity. He has made the inanimate matter that constitutes man’s body into a moving, talking, thinking human being. Yet God’s feat does not cause people to wonder. How blind are those who can see the skill of a conjurer’s magical feats, but not the infinitely greater feats of God. How ignorant are those who rush to become devoted disciples of anyone who performs tricks, without feeling any adoration for or attachment to the One who performs truly wondrous acts of creation. If only man were to truly discover God, he would become totally absorbed in the Lord’s wondrous feats of creation. Everything in the world would appear to him as a remarkable sign of God’s power and perfection. While dwelling in an earthly abode, he would see and feel nothing but the Lord on high. o CPS INTERNATIONAL (NEW DELHI) IS NOW ON WHATSAPP TO RECEIVE MAULANA WAHIDUDDIN KHAN’S VIDEOS, ARTICLES, QUOTES AND OTHER UPDATES WHATSAPP YOUR NAME AND LOCATION TO +91 99999 44118
