Listen "If I Only Knew Why | What I Learned #17"
Episode Synopsis
“If I only knew why then I could heal. I could move on… “
"I need closer before I can move on"
Seems logical, right?
Todays Ayas:
يَاأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَحُولُ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَقَلْبِهِ وَأَنَّهُ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ(24)
سورة الأنفال
وَإِذْ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ رَبِّ أَرِنِي كَيْفَ تُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ ۖ قَالَ أَوَلَمْ تُؤْمِن ۖ قَالَ بَلَىٰ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَطْمَئِنَّ قَلْبِي ۖ
سورة البقررة 260
⇢ What I learned:
When life happens and things don’t make sense, we have three choices. We can either:
1- Let go of how we think things “should” have been. Surrendering to The Creator and accepting (الإستسلام) while taking responsibility for our efforts and make the most out of the hands we were dealt with.
2- Stay suck in the loop of trying SO HARD to make the thing fit in the way we think they “should be" or how they are "supposed to go"
3- But there's also a third way that not everyone talks about... Where we get stuck the hole in between and it sounds like this "I will surrender and except but first I need to understand why."
