The wind of Grace
25:48
It is He who sends the winds as good news before His grace; and We send down pure water from the sky.
Note: Winds always carry the sounds of communication; or the breeze of messages; sounds in the wind are audible to the ears; but the messages in the breeze are only perceptible to the mind; there is an air of relief and solace to the breast when some good feel embraces us, as it breezes past. There is not a single breath in our breathing that does not carry winds of message to our hearts; the winds are solely about the future; and again, the winds are always sayer of good tidings. You are a believer in the glad tidings if you keep up your freeness of mind in relation to the messages your hearts have perceived; and your firmness in your resolve takes you closer to God and godliness for you have acquired this ability to understand His Communications; and it is Him who has elevated you in degree for He took account of your efforts, however meagre and minimum it is, to preserve the God-given calmness during times of perplexities. Thereat the Grace comes down upon the people having such hearts like the water pouring down from the sky on a barren land, that is sure to produce greens of splendor all around.
Patience during testing times is the sure winner of both the world's wealths. The more we endure since the breezes of message has touched our hearts, it is because of His bestow we are able to go past the difficult situation; and this is passing in our testing times. The reward for such passing is the victorious life that shall never see worry or fear in both the worlds; they shall have what they wish for; and whatever they ask of is with them in abundance and with all its freshness.
When we see it is beyond us to endure any further, God knows well our degree of perception and our standard of endurance; and it is that surely He will not test us beyond our level of tolerance. Whoso endures more and more it is because of His allowance of wisdom and therewith the tolerance; He allows this to whoso He is pleased with only to grace them with as much as they worth of His bounties, lasting forever. From such perception, the best of prayers for each of us would be:
"O God! Increase us in our patience and help us pass the test of time; Raise us in degrees and ranks in tolerance and wisdom; make our lives easy and smooth during the times of endurance."
Read the above verse thus:
It is He who sends the WINDS as viable MESSAGES before delivering His GRACE; and We bring down the CREATIVE LIFE FORCE from the sky.
