This will work okay. It fits great and is washable too.
But I really wanted black trim.
Disappointed I took the plain one home just in case. After thinking about it, I realized a washable white jacket with black trim couldn't withstand bleach. And it wouldn't match other outfits. So the plain one worked out great.
Things in life happen in the same manner. Our well-planned schedule (like mine recently) or dream house doesn't fit our values or life goals. That job or relationship we crave isn't happening. But we want it anyway.
Hopefully we realize before too late, that person wouldn't make a good spouse or that house was out of our price range. And the dream job comes with a schedule that doesn't allow us to be the parent our kids need.Often, our well-planned life isn't God's choice. Now what? Do I accept or reject His will?
