Your Truth: Freedom Within Guidance

My friend, I’ve been thinking about the verse: ‘Then if they disobey you, say: “I am innocent of what you do.”’ (26:216). It’s easy to think of this as a verse about disengagement, but I’ve realized it’s about the freedom of truth. When you’ve sincerely given your best, shared your wisdom from the heart, and yet others choose another path, it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It means you’ve fulfilled your role. Sometimes, the most loving act is to release the burden of their choices, to stand firm in your truth without internalizing their actions. It’s a profound lesson in boundaries. Your soul’s journey is your own. You are not responsible for their free will. Your freedom lies in knowing you have spoken your truth in sincerity and love. This verse gives us the strength to say, 'I am innocent,' not with judgment, but with a peaceful heart. May we all find such strength in our journeys.
