Scripture tells us that our ways are not God's ways; our thoughts are not His thoughts; our timing is not His. Some things just need time. Even when your life hits detours, God still loves you and is protecting and guiding you. Trials in life can strengthen us if we allow them to. James 1:2 says, " count it all joy when you fall into various trials" It may be hard to take that view at first. But if you trust in God and allow the Holy Spirit to lead you, your trials will become your triumphs. God shields those who trust Him.
