God Teaches Us with Parables
God Teaches Us with Parables
By Violette Blue, 11.10.2025
Have you ever had a question swirling in your mind—something you just can’t figure out—and then, almost like magic, a scene unfolds right before your eyes that answers it? For me, these moments come like parables sent straight from God, often accompanied by a quiet whisper from my guardian angels guiding me to understand what’s really happening.
The Three Muslim Women at the Supermarket
A question haunted me for some days about Muslim culture, head coverings, praying on the streets, and conflicts with others. I asked internally why this happens, why the Muslims do what they do.
One evening, at a supermarket checkout around 5 p.m., I watched a small family: three Muslim women—a grandmother, a mother, and a young woman about eighteen. Each paid for their own groceries, but when the young girl reached for a chocolate bar, the older woman said it wasn't good for her and if she really wanted it, she must pay for it herself.
She paid 1.29 euros, looking upset, then quickly left. I saw her walking anxiously on the street shortly after, disappearing into the crowd. My guardian angel gently explained to me that the girl wasn’t naive—she knew she was brought to serve, not to be rewarded. Still, she was brave enough to walk away, silently teaching a lesson about control and unspoken demands.
The Three Muslim Men on the Street
Not long after, three Muslim men passed by me, their conversation quiet but heavy with unspoken tension. They seemed to find little comfort in their homes and struggled to connect with people outside their circle. Their body language spoke volumes—restraint, longing, even frustration.
My guardian angel explained that these men, like many others, grew up in a culture dominated by strict rules. These rules are passed down and repeated, controlling families and stifling freedom. The cycle traps them in lives that feel unfulfilling, tied to traditions that can feel more like chains than guidance.
False Pride: The Political Man and a Stranger’s Glance
Months earlier, news showed a Muslim politician on the brink of downfall, yet he stood tall and smiled confidently at a conference. I wondered silently: why does he act like he’s still in control when everything is crumbling?
The next day, walking on the street with a mask and headphones, a simple man passed me. His confident, even prideful glance reminded me of that politician. He wore plain clothes—nothing flashy—but carried an air of false pride.
A quiet voice inside said, “False pride.” Suddenly, I saw the politician’s image again. His confidence wasn’t a real strength; it was a mask, a way to hold onto power that was slipping away.
The Cycle of Rules and Karma
What ties all these scenes together? The Muslim community I observed is deeply shaped by beliefs, culture, and religion that teach strict rules—especially about how to treat others and the younger generation. When young people grow up, they often repeat those same rules, controlling their families as they were controlled.
They don’t always realize how unfulfilling and heavy these lives are, caught in cycles of karma that aren’t meant to trap but to teach and balance. Instead of breaking free, many get stuck repeating the same patterns.
God’s wisdom, I believe, is in showing us these cycles—not to judge, but to understand the struggle and the hope that someday, someone will break free and live a life truly their own.
After Awakening: Finding Our Place in the World
After a spiritual awakening, many of us dive deep into seeking knowledge—about our life’s purpose, about the world around us, about how to find peace amid life’s storms. We want to fix what’s broken, to change people or situations the way we wish, as easily as opening a hand or flipping a switch. But life rarely works that way.
Every person has their own path, their own timing. We can’t force change on others, no matter how much we wish we could. All we can do is wish them well—that one day, they’ll find their own light at the end of the tunnel.
Our true contribution begins small. It starts with how we live—showing up as examples of compassion, patience, and understanding. In those quiet, everyday choices, we plant seeds that might one day grow into something greater. That’s the wisdom God teaches us in the parables of life: change begins not with grand gestures, but with the simple act of living well.
Be Like a Rock
Remember: be like a rock. Brave and strong, someone people can rely on. A rock isn’t just solid—it’s a symbol of faith. Unwavering. Steady, no matter what storms come your way. When the world feels uncertain or heavy, being that rock is one of the greatest gifts you can offer.
Sometimes, that’s the kind of strength the world needs most. Not loud or flashy, but quietly dependable. In living that way—with compassion, understanding, and courage—we become part of the answer God offers through all these parables unfolding around us.
