I was early everywhere. We got to the orthodontist a half an hour early. They were able to get Jacob's wires out and we were out the door 15 minutes before his appointment time. We headed toward the dentist's office and I was so happy I would be early enough to visit my friend at the vision clinic. I wanted to bring her coffee but there's not a coffee shop on my route so I decided against going out of my way to find coffee because I didn't want to be late. Well, God had other plans. I took a wrong turn. I didn't even realize it was a wrong turn until I started looking for my next turn and I recognized where I was. I hadn't intended to take that route - in fact, I had never gone that way before and had no idea that road would take me where I wanted to go as well. And guess what? There was a Starbucks on that route! So I decided to stop and pick up coffee for my friend. It WAS Monday after all and I felt I should get her coffee.
Turns out she was having a difficult morning and was wishing she had gotten herself a coffee to help her through the fog. She was so thankful for the coffee and I told her to thank God because I had no intention of getting her coffee this morning but God worked through my lack of navigational skills and directed me to get coffee for her. 😃
God is sooooo amazing! I love when I bumble my way around and He shows me how He can use my failures for His purposes!
This is why I am excited every morning to see what the Lord has in store for me!
