I'm in the situation where I have to remind myself to always thank Allah for everything. Help others in need where you have limited resources, only to hope Allah's blessings. Some goals that you set from long time ago vanished just like that within days.... well not vanished, but posponed insyaAllah :)
I often get upset to myself when I don't have power to control the situation... like when people ask for help but you don't have enough power to help them... it's a terrible feeling... It usually about money and money... That's usually the moment when I wanna be a rich man so bad hahaha.... :D
Allah mention in Qur'an some verses about giving or sedekah.
"Those who spend their wealth for Allah's sake may be compared to a grain which sprouts into seven ears with a hundred grains in each ear. Allah multiplies things for anyone He wishes; Allah is Boundless, Aware" (Al-Baqarah : 261 )
"Those who spend their wealth seeking Allah's approval and to strengthen their souls may be compared to a garden on a hilltop; should a rainstorm strike it, its produce is doubled, while if a rainstorm does not strike it, then drizzle does. Allah is Observant of anything you do" (Al-Baqarah : 265)
Those two verses are only small part of Qur'an that mention about sedekah... It helps me alot in some situation, for Allah is the only who does not break the promise :)
