From my earliest recollection of reading the Scriptures, this verse seemed to take a hold of my heart more than most. Possibly because it gave an answer to some “whys” of the detours and difficulties I have seen in life. It also gave me the awareness that the Lord is able to direct through closed doors, as well as open ones. And in this I was able to praise the Lord for His wisdom for all the bent roads that had led me to complete surrender to His Lordship, and eventual revelation of His Word.
