God has a plan for your good and His glory.

God says NO to redirect, not to reject.
"We say then, to anyone who is under trial, give Him time to steep the soul in His eternal truth. Go into the open air, look up into the depths of the sky, or out upon the wideness of the sea, or on the strength of the hills that is His also; or, if bound in the body, go forth in the spirit; spirit is not bound. Give Him time and, as surely as dawn follows night, there will break upon the heart a sense of certainty that cannot be shaken." ~ Amy Carmichael ~
"I give them eternal life,
and they shall never perish;
no one will snatch them
out of my hand."
~ John 10:28 ~

This is such an important thing to remember, especially considering all the turmoil our nation is experiencing right now. The ideological divide seems too wide to heal, so I have to keep in mind that the Lord God rules the nations and that no nation lasts forever. I have to remember that I'm waiting for that city not made by hands.

I love the Amy Carmichael quote. The spirit is not bound! When my mom had alzheimer's I always prayed for the Spirit to speak to her spirit. He could always reach her there.
