Subject: [Masjid Tucson] Submission weekly reminder

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

[Quran 3:159] ... GOD loves those who trust in Him.
[Quran 3:160] If GOD supports you, none can defeat you. And if He abandons you, who else can support you? In GOD the believers shall trust. 
	The True Believers
[Quran 8:2] The true believers are those whose hearts tremble when GOD is mentioned, and when His revelations are recited to them, their faith is strengthened, and they trust in their Lord.

When faced with a test, we sometimes have no idea how we may get through it. The good news is although we humans are powerless, God controls everything (Quran 4:126, 3:109, 6:102, 10:61, 22:76, 42:53). The Quran gives us many examples of how God saves His servants from situations that appear overwhelming. Muhammad and his friend seemed to be trapped in the cave with enemies chasing them (Quran 9:40). And the Children of Israel were at the shores of the Red Sea with no apparent escape from Pharaoh's army (Quran 26:61-62). God saved them all. Praise be to God!

May God help us submit to Him and trust in Him completely.
