Assalamualaikum
Did you ever expect that woman of your 'prospective priests' who will guide you to be righteous?
If that is your expectation, then you were wrong. Lets ask forgiveness.
Do not expect anyone to come because it's not necessarily a good and reliable. Did not the Holy Quran and Sunnah were given as a guide and complete enough to guide believers toward more?
Why do you have to wait a guide while the Quran and the Hadith have been waiting to guide your life?
Let yourself be at rest from self-concern. Do not undertake to do what someone else has carried out on your behalf. - Ibn Ata’illah -
Life is good. It Is meant to be. When Allah swt is taking care of us, why do we exert unnecessary pressure on ourselves? Our focus should be on obedience to Allah swt and everything else will fall in place.
Moreover, whatever we may plan, may not happen. Unless of course with the power of dua. You see, Allah swt is the best of planners.
Personally, when I look back at my life, none of my past plans materialized. I never thought that I d one day end up the way I am today. Nonetheless, I am extremely happy ! Happier than I would be if life went the way I planned. Allah SWT had BETTER plans. Alhamdulillah.
“Your Lord creates and chooses whatever He wills. The choice is not theirs.” (Qur’an, 28:68)
“But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But God known, and ye know not.” (Qur’an, 2:216)
Relax. Life is easy. Just get on the boat. Don’t have to waste energy rowing. Just be an obedient slave and Allah swt will make the waves bring you to a destination that’s the best for you.
InsyaAllah.
So far humans are only good for hope. But Allah SWT is ready to fulfill all expectations.
