Set your faces towards unity, and let the radiance of its light shine upon you. Gather ye together, and for the sake of God resolve to root out whatever is the source of contention among you.

God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way.

It is difficult to know why God reveals Himself to some and plays the game of hide-and-seek with others.
