Let’s learn a good spiritual frame of mind from children | Ali Reza Panahian
Let’s learn a good spiritual frame of mind from children.Do you all agree? Do you all have children? You have all seen children. Have you all been children?! Do you all agree that children don’t have sorrow? Do you agree? Sorrow is a deep sadness. Children cannot have a deep sadness. If a close family member dies, they don’t cry deeply. They go and play two minutes later. If they argue with somebody, they forget it two minutes later. Children are never worried about anything. Children have a good spiritual frame of mind. They’re spirited and lively.Ayatollah Bahjat explained why children are this way. He said they are sure that when they get hungry tomorrow, their parents will feed them. Ayatollah Bahjat said, “Children are never worried about tomorrow’s food.” Adults are those who are wretched. I’m sorry I said wretched! But, Ayatollah Bahjat said, “The same amount that a child trusts that his parents will definitely feed him tomorrow, I shouldn’t be worried either.” If we trusted in God, that God willing, He’ll give us tomorrow’s sustenance, we would not have sorrow either, like children. How much can parents really be relied upon? Almost not at all. How much can we rely on God? Very much. You understand that God is reliable, but you don’t rely on Him. However, your child is relying on you. It means this child is telling you, “Mom, dad, you should be ashamed. Be happy like me. Let’s play.”A good spiritual frame of mind means not having this senseless sorrow. What is a good spiritual frame of mind? A good spiritual frame of mind means that you feel God is powerful. He is able to destroy the universe! Wow, what a power! If this feeling exists deeply, this means having a good spiritual frame of mind. What does a good spiritual frame of mind mean? Don’t cry because of sorrow. Enjoy His power. Enjoy so much that a tear flows. This springs from another place in the soul. That tear is like the tear of children, who are light-hearted. That kind of tear is very different from my tear, who is so wretched and lowly. All of these tears are from sorrows and sadness, which arise from disbelieving in God! All of this arises from ingratitude and unbelief. Then, I want to take this tear to God?!A good spiritual frame of mind means you enjoy being in God’s embrace. This is just like a child who goes to his parent’s embrace when he is among strangers and enjoys this. It can be seen in his eyes. You say, “How are you little one?” He turns his face towards his parents, “Who’s this?!” “He’s a special person. Talk to him!” “I don’t know him. Who is he? (Mom,) I know you. I come into your embrace.” This means the child is telling you, “Mom, dad, you should be ashamed. Be happy like me.” A good spiritual frame of mind means you enjoy feeling you are under God’s shelter.
