I set out to spend five uninterrupted hours with God—starting at a rhino sanctuary, then the beach, then the woods—but nothing went as planned. Frustrations piled up, and I felt like I’d wasted a beautiful gift. But in the chaos and detours, God gently reminded me: He was with me all along. Sometimes, the holy moments don’t happen in perfect silence—they show up in our missed turns, traffic jams, and tangled expectations.
