Divine Appointments

Christian, were you ever upset
By some unforeseen delay,
But later you looked back to see
That it kept you from harm's way?

We set dates and make appointments.
We try to plan the best we can,
But sometimes God in His wisdom
Sees for us a much better plan.

We call it accident or coincidence
Or some other words we use and say
To explain the reason things happen
That send disappointments our way.

Consider the example of Joseph.
Look at the injustice he withstood.
He was the target of evil plotting,
But then God turned it into good.

In our limited human finite minds,
We just cannot seem to understand
That God makes divine appointments
When we are led by His mighty hand.
