I do not think people understand
How much Allah really loves us
He would forgive you even if your sins reached the sky
He loves you 90 times more than your own mother
If you take one step to Him
He will take tens steps towards you
Walk towards Him
He will run to you
To every cry
He will answer a hundred times
‘I am here’
He is closer to you than your jugular vein
He is the heartbeat of all that lives
That is
In you and I
All around
There is love and forgiveness
Seeping through it all
Once you understand this
You will realise
That you are never alone
That fear does not live here anymore
