You never walk alone: Living with God in times of suffering lecture by Imam Abdul Latif Finch
Fees: $15/- (Before 16th January 2013), $20/- (After 16th January 2013)
Have you ever been so down, you felt life is meaningless? Have you ever been faced with so many problems, you felt like giving up? Each one of us will face a time when we feel so alone despite having friends and family. This is when we should embark on a path towards God, because in every suffering, is a blessing, if only we learn to see it. And God will not let you walk alone!
God's saying, 'And He is with you whosesoever you are' is enough as a proof that Allah is indeed with us but why are we not experiencing Him? The answer lies in the fact that we have yet to turn to Him for if man were to know his Lord Creator, he would have faced sufferings while smiling because he knows that whatever has afflicted him has been decreed and that it was so because of great care and concern from God.
