Excerpt from my book Sweet William (written by Rebecca Jones)

 

Page 7

“Natalie, a 15-year-old granddaughter of a friend, had come into Michael and Gabrielle’s life. Natalie and Michael had a special new bond, which got Michael thinking of children again. He even told her he would adopt a baby. Although Michael, a doctor, believed in science that said they could never have children, he also believed in the miracles of God. Which brought her back to the fact that the test showed she was pregnant. She loved children; she really did. Yet they had just talked about moving from their tiny apartment to a cabin. And she had just began a new career.”

 

Isn’t it amazing how we sometimes “map out” how our life is going to be? We plan, try to manipulate our circumstances to fit our dreams in a pretty box. And then some how we get derailed like a train. How horrible, we think! But in the end the derailment was actually a miracle and purpose of God. It just took a different turn and a lot of time to come together. But looking back, it was for the best. I have learned that sometimes life takes an unexpected wrong turn in the right direction. You follow it and end up in the place you were supposed to be all along.
