Subject: [Masjid Tucson] Submission weekly reminder

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

	Knowing God
[Quran 10:61] You do not get into any situation, nor do you recite any Quran, nor do you do anything, without us being witnesses thereof as you do it. Not even an atom's weight is out of your Lord's control, be it in the heavens or the earth. Nor is there anything smaller than an atom, or larger, that is not recorded in a profound record.

Those who believe in God know He is Omnipotent and Omniscient. And that God is in full control of everything and everyone (Quran 3:109, 4:126, 8:17, 10:61, 4:126, 76:30, etc.).

Knowing that God is in control helps us submit to Him. It helps us accept whatever happens to us personally or in the world. If someone or something annoys us--we can remind ourselves that God is doing everything. And that there's a good reason for everything.

May God help us remember that He is doing everything and submit to His will.
