God's hand in everything

Have a smooth trip. Really.

By Gay Bryant

During A Recent trip, I resolved that no matter what came up, I would try to see the good in everything and keep my thought calm. This verse from a hymn was my constant companion:

Embosomed deep in Thy dear love,
Held in Thy law, I stand:
Thy hand in all things I behold,
And all things in Thy hand.
Thou leadest me by unsought ways,
Thou turn'st my mourning into praise.
