Stop hating on yourself for not being perfect. If God wanted perfection, He would have made you an angel.
Yasmin MogahedWhen someone hurts you, your first thought may be to wish you had never met them at all. But remember that even those who've hurt you, came into your life for a reason, and left for a reason. Itโs for the best and healing starts with acceptance.
Yasmin MogahedWhen you're faced with a choice, remember this: Everything else will pass away. Your family. Your friends. Your material possessions. Your beauty. Your youth. Your life. And there is only one thing that remains. Ask yourself: Which are you chasing?
Yasmin MogahedTimes of hardship can act as both an indicator, as well as a cure, for our broken relationship with our Creator.
Yasmin MogahedBreak in the hands of God, He'll unbreak you. Break in the hands of people, you'll remain forever broken. Break to no one, your heart will remain hard.
Yasmin MogahedFor a wound to heal, you have to clean it out. Again, and again, and again. And this cleaning process stings. The cleaning of a wound hurts. Yes. Healing takes so much work. So much persistence. And so much patience. But every process has an end and an appointed term. Your healing will come... And like all created things, your worldly pain will die.
