David Jeremiah: God’s itinerary
By David Jeremiah And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. Psalm 139:16b Recommended Reading: Genesis 22:8-14 If a vacationer can afford it, concierge-type travel services can plan and provide for every day—actually, every hour—of an itinerary.

Last Thursday night, a week ago as I’m writing this, the rain started. This is not unusual for summer in our area. But by Friday morning, the rain had started filling ditches that normally don’t fill, and covering roadways that normally don’t cover. I was on my way to a doctor’s appointment in Baton Rouge when we got the call that schools, our second full day of the new year, were closing and parents needed to come back and get their kids. Buses were already en route trying to deliver kids back home they’d just picked up. The water came fast and no one was prepared for what was happening. A couple of buses got stuck in several feet of water because they could no longer see the road. Teachers got stuck at their respective schools because after helping their students leave, they found out the roads to their own homes were no longer passable.
