 * HOW SHALL WE ESCAPE?
   
   The idiom, 'life is not a bed of roses', suggests that people must learn to
   endure life's ups and downs. This is also true for godfearing people in the
   west like Christians and Muslims who often find themselves at odds with
   radically different values prevailing in the surrounding society. Lot was an
   example of a righteous man who lived in a deeply immoral society facing this
   very kind of dilemma. The Bible and Qur'an record two other stories of
   godfearing men who experienced intense, albeit different, kinds of hardships:
   Job and Jonah. They too, narrowly escaped. Are there lessons we can learn
   from their examples? As it is written, “If the righteous are barely saved,

   never again destroy the world by water).

   The Gospel proclaims that God loves every human being he created, so it
   shouldn't be surprising that he wants us to love him in return. What better
   way to encourage us to seek him than to reveal himself little by little so
   that we come to know him more and more. God said, “You will seek me and find
   me when you seek me with all your heart.” He uses prophecies and proverbs,
   parables and paradoxes, riddles and sayings of the wise to keep us engaged,
   intrigued and invested on the journey of discovering how magnificent and
   delightful he is. As it is written, “The one thing I ask of the Lord—the
   thing I seek most—is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my
   life, delighting in the Lord’s perfections.” So then, “Let us press on to
   know him.”
