Does Allah hear me?

I was told many years ago to keep a diary of what provokes my epileptic seizures. It's only a few things (things I should be able to control, but can (will) not. We are a stubborn people). I learned from keeping those diaries that writing is a wonderful form of expression. I write all the time. I love to read expressive (meaningful) thoughts of others. It's one of the reasons I love the Minister so much. He says a lot, then, says more than a lot in what he says that you may not hear the first time you listen (or read). I love reading the Holy Qur’an because messages are repeated, just for me.

I have maybe one close friend because not everyone understands. Those that truly understand know if you tell me something, you will get used to repeating it to me at least 3 times, back to back. I am going to ask you to repeat what you said. I play like it’s because I am hard of hearing, but I am not. I can hear a pin drop in the next city. It’s not because I am mentally deficient. I am not, I am very intelligent, but I have to work hard to mentally stimulate my mind - which allows me to keep my intelligence. As an epileptic, I have sporadic memory loss (especially if I have allowed my life to reach the point of less than favorable conditions.)

Does the Minister know me? He repeats everything several times, in several different ways just so I don’t have to ask anyone around me what did he say. To me this is love, a love that I can't say I rightly deserve. When I was in total darkness, an angel was sent to me to show me where that light shone that would help preserve my very being. I want to be in the light so bad, but am I worthy?

There are those that are very strong, then those that are afraid to demonstrate the strength they truly posses. I think I am strong, but very weak in demonstrating it.

As-Salaam Alaikum, Sis. Leah...

Yes, Allah does hear you. Just remember that He is closer to the Believer than his or her own life vein. Indeed, He hears the thought before it even materializes...

May Allah Bless you and Keep you in His Light!

Bro. Reuben
