Qur'an 20190212

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

63.  Say, "Who is it that delivers you from the dark recesses of land and sea.  When you call upon God in humility and in silent terror, 'If God only delivers us from these, we shall truly show our gratitude'?"

64.  Say, "It is Allah that delivers you from these and all distresses, and yet you worship false gods!"

65.  Say, "God has power to send calamities on you from above and below, or to cover you with confusion in party strife, giving you a taste of mutual vengeance, each from the other."  See how We explain the Signs by various ways, that they may understand.

66.  But your people reject this.  Say, "Not mine is the responsibility for arranging your affairs."

(The Cattle 6:63-66)

Gunhild Carling is so awesome!

Hi Natty!  What's going on with you today?  I'm happy to see your having fun with your beautiful group of people.  Are you getting ready to go globetrotting again?  It's time to soak up some sunshine on a tropical beach, right?  It's hot here today, but not so hot that I had to nap on a chair this before voice training.  Yes dear, I'm trying to cheer up.  As long as I'm left alone when I'm grumpy, I calm down quite easily.  Plus, it's not that hot today.  I had steamed rice with eggs for lunch.  Simplicity!  Best for a 2 hour set.  Yes, I had my eggs sunny side up as usual.  Almost perfect, except that I broke one yolk when I was plating the eggs.  I didn't ruin them completely, it just leaked out the bottom a little.  Oh well, there's no such thing as perfect in this life anyhow.

I love this crazy lady!  She's so awesome!
