Keep Trying!

This is a very touching story about Sayed Mohammad and Soraya Foully, an Egyptian couple who has got sextuplets last October. A story that really moves me more into believing that God gives us what we need despite everything that we want in this world.

This couple has been waiting for 12 years to have a beautiful angel born in their life. So after years of trying and living separately at the same time, Sayed decided to bring his wife along to Abu Dhabi where he resides in order to push their effort of getting baby more forward.

It happened eventually! Imagine how happy they were when told that Soraya was finally expecting. But the joy was soon become a despair when the couple found out that they were expecting not only one or two or three but six instead, in the same time when they got the news that their old one bedroom apartment would be knocked down.

Working as a driver with only approximately USD 450 monthly earning, Sayed is in very big difficulties to find a home for his wife and new six borns. Not to mention how to keep them surviving with their daily needs. In addition by law, he also can not provide a health insurance for his babies because in order to get one he should earn minimum of approximately USD 1,200 per month.

So now, let's put everything together: they have been praying, trying to get at least one baby for the past 12 years..and suddenly, BOOM!..God granted their wish..with SIX altogether yet no improvement in their living standard. Why? It's because they only ask for a baby. And I think, God thinks that they need more than one baby despite their financial situation. Somehow, somewhere..behind this moments, there is something good waiting for Sayed and Soraya in related to their six babies. They just need to keep their faith and always do their best. Even granting wishes is not free with God...don't you think?

Drawing the bottomline of the stories: you try for 12 years for one and you get six...apply this on every situation in your life and you will get more. Never stop trying!
