God's Way (a true story) 

In the late 1990's, two former college basketball players missed their connecting flight to Kenya. Nine irritating hours later, the only seats remaining in the next available flight were in first class, so the two big men were seated at the front of the plane. Midway through that flight, the plane took a nosedive and plummeted toward the ground at full throttle. At the sound of commotion, a flight attendant opened the cockpit door, and there was a huge deranged man who had overwhelmed the pilots. The two basketball players jumped up and wrestled the attacker to the ground and subdued him. Without their assistance, the plane would have crashed within seconds, having already fallen from thirty thousand feet to less than four thousand feet. 

God delayed those two young men on purpose and put them strategically where they could help save that entire plane. If He redirects our steps, He has a reason.* 

"A man's heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps". (Proverbs 16:9)
