Not all roads lead to beautiful destinations

Hang in there. He has got YOU.

In the name of Allah the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.

Not all roads lead to beautiful destinations...

Some lead us to and through hard, messy paths, then throw in difficulties and confusion even when you are intentionally choosing the path of goodness.

It is okay if you are not there yet. You know, the point where you have an audience and can earn money from sharing the stories of your suffering and your pain.

It is okay if you have not yet mastered your pain enough to help someone through theirs.

It is okay if you are still navigating and trying to make sense of all that happened.

It is okay if you are still grieving the life you dreamt of or thought you would have...

Because you prayed and asked Him. You did istikhara and trusted Him.

Know that paths always lead somewhere even if it is just a long stretch of more path...

Which means you get to keep going. His ways are boundless and limitless.

So, keep giving it to Him because truly, with Him, nothing is ever lost.

And all is Khair for a believer.

رَضيـتُ بِاللهِ رَبَّـاً وَبِالإسْلامِ ديـناً وَبِمُحَـمَّدٍ نَبِيّـاً

I am pleased with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion, and with Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as my Prophet.

Hang in there. The Most Merciful has got your back. Now turn to Him in Repentance.

Until next time,

Nana
