Verily

"إِنَّهُ مَنْ يَتَّقِ وَيَصْبِرْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُضِيعُ أَجْرَ الْمُحْسِنِين"

 "Verily, he who fears Allâh with obedience to Him (by abstaining from sins and evil deeds, and by performing righteous good deeds), and is patient, then surely, Allâh makes not the reward of the Muhsinûn (good-doers - see V.2:112) to be lost."

It's a balm to the soul...knowing that after all this suffering, patience is paid back for highly by our Lord. He promised not to waste the good deeds of good-doers.

May Allh grant us the patience it takes to get through this world unscathed...
