Understanding

Have you ever thought you knew exactly what God was doing, only to find out you were way off? I keep finding myself in that situation lately. 

There are certain things I keep praying for and every time I think God is answering, it turns out that He isn't doing what I'd expected. 

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;  in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

Proverbs 3:5-6

And then I run into Proverbs 3:5-6. Lean not on your own understanding. What I see and understand is wrong so often. And it's terribly hard for me to admit to being wrong. But there is a trust that no matter what, God will make my paths straight. He will take what I've messed up, what I've misjudged, what I've broken, and he will make everything right. 

In His timing, not mine.
