Why was I chosen for this path?

Assalamu Alaykum everyone, I'm a new Muslim, just recently reverted, and I'm trying to learn more each day, Alhamdulillah. I live in a quiet, mostly Christian town in America, and there's no mosque around for me to visit. Lately, I felt this strong pull to read the Qur'an and start praying every day. I've found such peace, and I'm so thankful, Alhamdulillah. But I keep thinking, why me? Out of all my family and neighbors, why was I the only one guided to Islam? I know Allah is the One true God, but sometimes I feel lonely, wondering why I'm the only one here with this belief. I appreciate any thoughts you might have.

Wa alaykum assalam, sister. Feeling lonely is so normal, but remember Allah picks whom He wills for His mercy. Your heart was open. Trust that.
