📷 The Way to Gain Strength
The strengths, which a person can gain, are much more than what one can imagine. The only way to gain these strengths is by opposing our carnal desires and worshipping purely. Of course, if a person struggles and worships to gain these powers, he has pursued his desires and his worshipping isn’t sincere.

📷 Perpetual Watchfulness
God sees our childish games and is moderate with us. He sees our senseless mistakes and tolerates us. He sees the opportunities that we miss and waits patiently. After seeing each of our mistakes, he continuously provides the environment for us to do another good action so that we may compensate. And, He never gets tired. He is always taking care of us.

📷 Movement
Movement is an inseparable part of a human being’s life. If we are not moving towards getting better, we will move towards getting worse. Being unchanging in life is meaningless. We are forced to move towards getting better in each moment, otherwise our situation will unwantedly become worse. The importance of God’s forgiveness is that He constantly compensates for our falls so that we aren’t destroyed.

📕 The story of the consultation of the father of a son who was lazy in praying with Mr. Panahian.
📌 How have you introduced prayer?
📌 In the beginning, praying is not necessarily being in love with God.
🔸 -My son doesn’t pray. He is lazy in praying. He is 18, almost 19, and goes to the university. But, I don’t know why he is lazy in praying. We have done everything to train him. Tell us what we should tell him.
🔸-How have you introduced prayer to your son?
🔸-We introduced it to him in some way.
🔸-No! Tell me exactly how you have introduced prayer.
💠 He stated some of the common definitions of prayer until he came to the following sentence, “Prayer is being in love with God, chatting with the Lord, telling your secrets and needs to the Creator of the universe, etc.” By defining prayer in this way, when his son started praying, he probably told himself, “Telling secrets and needs? If I have a secret, I’ll just tell God!” This means this young person started praying and saw that he didn’t feel that he is in love with God or that he had a spiritual feeling. Then, he told God, “I’m not in the mood for being in love right now. God, I will come later to fall in love. Now, I’m in the middle of my work and studies.”
💠 I told that honourable father, “You have introduced prayer wrongly. (With that definition) your son will pray for a while, then when he doesn’t enjoy praying, he won’t pray anymore. Because, he thinks that he hasn’t benefited from prayer. Therefore, he thinks that he has failed in praying.”

📷 Managing Life
One of the most important benefits, which comes from managing and planning, is the division of facilities and the scheduling of activities, so that the most use may be gained from the least facilities. The best managing is managing for one’s entire life. If we schedule our life and see the end of it from the beginning, we have reached mental maturity in managing life.

📷 A Falling Star
Spiritual tendencies are like falling stars, which pass by the sky of our heart and show us the way. The period of this passing is short and not repeated very often. If we are indifferent about the passing of these falling stars, they will choose other skies to illuminate. If we pay attention to these inspirations, they will illuminate the sky of our heart.

📷 Seeking Variety
God put the seeking of variety and boredom in human beings so that they won’t get caught up in any one of these world’s blessings, will pass by everything except God, and will come to God. This is when a person becomes calm, because this blessing has stability and satisfies a person’s seeking of variety. However, this seeking of variety often causes us to oppress others, pursue entertainments, and escape even more from God.

📷 Like a Sea…
While one can enjoy swimming in the sea, surfing on its waves and benefit from its soft breeze, some people will drown in it. This world is the same way. One shouldn’t drown in this world. You should have the skill to swim in it, surf on its waves and breathe in from its breeze. But if you become greedy for the world and infatuated with it, you have drowned in it!
