Only for You

Your motivation should only be Me. Your encouragement should only be from Me. Even your punisher should only be Me. You should only be afraid of Me. What’s the meaning of sincerity? A tradition says, “Sincerity is the highest point of religion.” “Sincerity means that you do deeds only because of Me (God), and you don’t do them under the influence of anyone else! If even 1% of it is done under the influence of others, I won’t accept it at all!”
How important is spiritual independence in motivation? “God! Take it easy. I did this because of You. If it wasn’t because of You and Imam Husayn (‘a), I wouldn’t have done any of these at all. I swear I did it because of You. I love You!” God replies, “Yes, but when you were coming out of the meeting someone encouraged you and you became a little happy.” “But this was only 1% of it!” “No, I won’t accept any of it. Come next time.” “But God, 99.99% of it was because of You! 0.01% was ruined because of my heart! You know the heart becomes dependent.” “It’s not accepted.” The Kind God says, “I won’t accept it.”
After you (audience) go, I’ll negotiate and talk to God! But, no matter how much we insist, God won’t accept. God says, “I’m a good partner. Did you choose another partner?” “God, believe me…!” God replies, “Don’t insist. People are watching you! Go. This wasn’t accepted. Do it again. Your motivation and encouragement should only be from Me. Even your punisher should only be Me. You should only be afraid of Me.” This is amazing!

How can we benefit more from the Month of Ramadan?

Many ask, “How can we benefit from the Month of Ramadan?” When we enter the Holy Month of Ramadan, we should feel that this is the first Month of Ramadan that we are experiencing. And, we should think that this is the last Month of Ramadan that we will experience. This is what they have recommended. Truly, the Holy Month of Ramadan can compensate for all the lacks in a person’s past and eliminate all of his spiritual defects.
The Holy Month of Ramadan can provide for and guarantee the entire future life of a person. The Holy Month of Ramadan is not only for one year. Each time is for one’s whole life. But, we don’t benefit from it very much. Putting effort to gain benefits, and crying and weeping to not lose this great opportunity, are factors for benefiting from this month. Many ask, “How can we benefit from the Month of Ramadan?”
They should ask this question from God ten times with tears and moans. And, they should search for the answer in the different prayers and self-evaluations that they know. Not everything should be easily at a person’s disposal.
