About this episode
Detour ahead!
As you drive down the highway, you’ll encounter many road signs. But one of the most annoying is the detour.
When our plans of traveling to our destination are hindered, we grow frustrated by the delay and inconvenience.
But detours don’t only happen on the highway. The parenting journey also has them. Perhaps you love football, but your son doesn’t. Maybe he likes to read, but you’d rather wrestle with him.
Whatever the detour to your original plans and expectations, take comfort in knowing that God is in control. That detour that you find so annoying and frustrating may be the very thing God uses to accomplish his will in the future. Above all, trust God’s guidance even when you cannot see where life’s road is taking you or your son.
