"Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ" (Philippians 1:6)

The Lord has a way of making every misstep and wrong turn to somehow make you "land in His hand." Even in those times of confusion and bewilderment when you thought, "I'll never get out of this..." God makes a way:
