communicate

as muslims we are taught ways to communicate to the Creator Allah SWT such as through compulsory prayers, doa, various religious duties and even through our daily activities.

creativity is bestowed upon us by Him too. therefore, in my opinion by exercising the talents that we have, we are also communicating with Him. i feel closer to Him when i am creating something (such as for KRA). i also find that when i have strong emotions such as when times are hard, i feel a song (or some) coming up in my heart that is able to soothe me. i feel that this is another way that He has provided for me to feel closer to Him, to communicate my feelings effectively. i find that these songs are comforting to me.

Whitney Houston - I Look To You


As I lay me down,
Heaven hear me now.
I'm lost without a cause
After giving it my all.
Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun.
After all that I've been through
Who on earth can I turn to?

I look to you.
I look to you.
After all my strength is gone,
In you I can be strong
I look to you.
I look to you.
And when melodies are gone,
In you I hear a song.
I look to you.

About to lose my breathe,
There's no more fighting left,
Sinking to rise no more,
Searching for that open door.
And every road that I've taken
Lead to my regret.
And I don't know if I'm going to make it.
Nothing to do but lift my head

I look to you.
I look to you.
After all my strength is gone,
In you I can be strong
I look to you.
I look to you.
And when melodies are gone,
In you I hear a song.
I look to you.

My levees are broken
My walls have come
Tumbling down on me
The rain is falling.
Defeat is calling.
I need you to set me free.
Take me far away from the battle.
I need you.
Shine on me.

I look to you.
I look to you.
After all my strength is gone,
In you I can be strong
I look to you.
I look to you.
And when melodies are gone,
In you I hear a song.
I look to you.

Maher Zain - InsyaAllah

Everytime you feel like you cannot go on 

You feel so lost 

That your so alone 

All you is see is night 

And darkness all around 

You feel so helpless 

You can't see which way to go 

Don't despair and never lose hope 

Cause Allah is always by your side 

Insya Allah 2x 

Insya Allah you'll find your way 

Every time you can make one more mistake 

You feel you can't repent 

And that its way too late 

Your're so confused,wrong decisions you have made 

Haunt your mind and your heart is full of shame 

Don't despair and never lose hope 

Cause Allah is always by your side 

Insya Allah 2x 

Insya Allah you`ll find your way 

Insya Allah 2x 

Insya Allah you`ll find your way 

Turn to Allah 

He's never far away 

Put your trust in Him 

Raise your hands and pray 

OOO Ya Allah 

Guide my steps don`t let me go astray 

You're the only one that showed me the way, 

Showed me the way 2x 

Insya Allah 2x 

Insya Allah we`ll find the way
