Divine detours

Have you ever been sure of your direction only to be halted by a closed door? I have plenty of times as well as some of my friends recently. Its really hard to be face to face with a solid closed door and no open windows. My husband calls these lighthouse moments, where instead of feeling dead in the water, use the stop as a lighthouse and look for the new direction God might be taking you. 

This week my pastor used the example of Jericho when the Israelites were instructed to walk around the walls 6 times before the walls came a-tumbling on the 7th. The point is just keep walking and moving forward, you could be on a divine detour.
