48. I Will Complete My Blessings!
Almighty God will always finish what He started. The moment God placed a dream in your heart, the moment that promise took root, God not only started something in your life but He also set a completion date. The Qur’an tells us,
“God does not want to make any hardship over you, but He wants to cleanse you and to complete His blessings upon you that you may be appreciative”. (Qur’an; 5:6)1
The promise would not have come alive if God did not already have a plan to bring it to pass. It does not matter how long it is been or how impossible it looks. Your mind may tell you that it is too late. You have missed too many opportunities. It is never going to happen. No, God is saying:
“You shall not fear them, but fear Me so that I may complete My blessings upon you and that you may be guided”. (Qur’an; 2:150)2
So choose to trust God Almighty. Choose to wait on God. Put your faith in God, knowing that through faith and patience every promise will come to pass. As He said,
“For anyone who reveres God and is patient, then God will not waste the reward of the good doers”. (Qur’an; 12:90)3
Know that if you will stay in faith and not talk yourself out of it, it will just be a matter of time before it happens. So put your trust in Almighty God; be patient and just care about your duty. Be sure that He will complete His blessings.

ما يُريدُ اللَّهُ لِيَجْعَلَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنْ حَرَجٍ وَ لكِنْ يُريدُ لِيُطَهِّرَكُمْ وَ لِيُتِمَّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَيْكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُون . - 2. .
فَلَا تخَْشَوْهُمْ وَ اخْشَوْنىِ وَ لِأُتِمَّ نِعْمَتىِ عَلَيْكمُْ وَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُون . - 3. .
إِنَّهُ مَنْ يَتَّقِ وَ يَصْبِرْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُضيعُ أَجْرَ الْمُحْسِنين.
