This weekend, in the midst of preparing for BCHS' production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat", my son, Josiah suffered an injury.
He went on a golf cart ride with a teenager who was helping out in the production. He and the young man driving were having a great time (probably giggling and goofing around) when the young man decided to take a quick turn that Josiah did not anticipate. Josiah literally fell out of the cart.
The result: scraped knees, scraped elbows, and a sprained wrist. He just did not anticipate the next move and it threw off his balance.
Have you ever had that happen to you? A job change? A demotion? A failed marriage? An economic downturn?
Sometimes, it is easy to lose our balance in such a situation. It is easy to feel hurt, bruised, and a little bitter.
"Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails." - Proverbs 19:21.
I take great comfort that even when our pride is bruised and our plans sprained, God's purpose is prevailing. Winning. Higher. Better.
Have a great day and know that I am praying for you!
