My faithful but aging mobile phone's battery had become rather undependable lately. I wanted to replace it with something similar but that particular model was out of stock everywhere. In the end, I let up and bought a different model. (The fact that I could get a discount helped. 😄)

Like the above example, I make many decisions daily. Frequently, I cannot get what I want exactly, so I will decide on something else that can accomplish what I want to accomplish. The important thing is to not lose track of the end goal.

Like how the water flows, we need to be flexible to God's leading and veer to the left or to the right so we can move forward and onward.
