Before a Choice

527.03Comment: I do not have closer friends than my group. But because of my job, I cannot come to the group regularly.

My Response: If it is difficult for you to change your job for some reason so that you can spend more time with the group and study, then there is nothing to be done. You have to keep working.

My teacher Rabash worked in road construction all week far from home and far from the lessons. He would come home for just one day a week. And this went on for many years. It is up to you.

If you can find an easier job without losing your salary, then change it. But if not, it is okay. On the contrary, maybe when you are at work, but deeply wish you could be with the group and feel anxious about it, those feelings also elevate you.

Question: If the Creator has given me this situation, what should I do to be closer to Him?

Answer: If you have the opportunity to change jobs without losing materially, but would be able to participate more in the group and in study, then of course, you should do it.
