You didn't understand it at the time.
The delay. The closed door. The unexpected turn.
It felt like a setback.
Like God was withholding something good.
But now, looking back, you can see it.
The detour wasn't punishment.
It was protection.
The delay wasn't denial.
It was preparation.
The closed door wasn't rejection.
It was redirection.
God's kindness is sometimes hidden in the paths
you never wanted to take.
This week, name one detour that later made sense.
Not the one that still hurts.
The one you can now see was mercy.
And if you're in a detour right now that doesn't make sense yet,
trust that it will.
Not every detour is a delay.
Some are the only way to where you're meant to be.
