There is a God

Okay, I was on a trip to DC with my dad and younger brother. My mom stayed to look after the dog. This morning, she walked him, and as usual, when he starts pulling she lets him go free and she walks beside him. This is usually up north where she lives. She and my brother were visiting me in NJ. Dog is usually with me. Okay, I usually walk the dog by the side of the street. He decided to run into the woods and into the stream that goes into the lake. Now let me tell you about that lake. Many people have drowned in it because of the mud. My dog was struggling against it. My mom went into to save him and she managed to push him out. Then she started sinking. The water was up to her nose and she thought it was then end. And her last thought was that if it is she would say goodbye. She struggled against the mud to get her cell phone. Her friend called her and she told her to send her husband right away. Her husband saved my mom. The police arrived two minutes later, my mom called them after she called her friend. I could have lost my mom today but she is just fine. A little shaken, but fine. Goes to show that there is a God.

There definately is, I guess it wasn't her time to go. That must have been scary for you all, best thing to do now is thank Him and show how grateful you are.

Al-hamdulillah. To Allah we belong and unto Him we shall return.

Even us having a mother is a sign in itself. We take many things for granted. Trials can teach us to be grateful, recognize and appreciate our countless blessings.

May He guide you to the right path.

Alhamdulillah! Allah makes us realize his blessings mostly when we think we are going to loose them.



Please don't get offended. You was standing near the lake? So could have called anyone :ermm:.
