The gift of knowing and being mindful of your Creator is one of the greatest blessings anyone can ever have. There are those who indulge daily in the blessings of Allah, enjoying His provision, with no awareness of the Giver of those blessings and pleasures. Then there are those, who are struggling with a sin or hardship, every time they fall into sin, or each time they are tested, they run to Allah, seeking His aid.
Our weaknesses, or those things we are struggling with, are a Mercy from Allah if they direct us back to Him. Imagine if we never struggled, never had to battle with our souls, would our hearts really call out to Him? Would we feel needy before Him?
Your struggles are not meaningless, they have a greater purpose. They remind us, of where we came from and to whom we will return. They warn us against arrogance and teach us humility, but most importantly, they remind us that, "Allah is indeed self-sufficient, whereas you stand in need [of Him]."
We are always, and will forever, stand in need of Our Maker.
