THE WORD OF GOD

He who gave you life. Then He will cause you to die. Then He will give you life again. Surely, man is most ungrateful. (22: 65-66) All the things of this earth maintain a harmonious balance. If this balance is upset, it will be harmful to us instead of being useful. If a piece of metal is put in water, it will sink immediately. But God has made water subject to certain rules on account of which if iron is given the shape of a boat, it will not sink in water. The numerous spheres floating in space should apparently have fallen down, but according to a set law of nature, they accurately maintain their orbits. Man has not created himself. God has created him. Then He has maintained him in a world which is full of blessings. But after being given freedom, man has become so rebellious that he does not admit the graciousness of his greatest Benefactor.  If you want to live as a spiritual person, learn the art of extraction. You have to extract the spiritual content from material events.
