I heard an incredible story today!  A man had taken a wrong turn and ended up where he wasn’t expected. Although his wrong turn, was God’s intervention. For this man ended up witnessing a house on fire. He immediately sprang into action, running around the house banging on windows to alert anyone who may have been in the home. Well, there was, four children, various ages, home alone. Due to the man alerting them, all the children made it out of the burning home safely. The Mom, and children later being relieved and grateful for this man’s right place at the right time. Praise be to God! We can choose to be frustrated when we don’t wind up being where we hoped, or we can trust that God has a reason and a plan. Friend, this man didn’t get to his destination when he wanted, but he sure ended up right where God had planned.  God’s timing, His plan, and His direction is always guided by His protection, His intervention, and His love. Four children were saved that night, as God’s purpose and His goodness was revealed. That man thought he took a wrong turn, but God had him right where he wanted him. May we trust that God’s plan is always where He wants us.
