We plan a lot. We like to plan and have certain images of the way we see our life and that’s fine. We’re supposed to make plans, make du’a accordingly but in the end, Allah grants us what we need, not necessarily always what we want.
Even if our plan is thrown off course, even if things don’t make sense at first, there is wisdom in Allah’s planning that we often don’t see at first but it’s there.
Those moments of uncertainty and confusion are very powerful because they teach us to just let go and trust in Allah and slowly all the pieces will start to fall right into place, exactly the way that was best for you and I.
