Then you hear the dreaded noise and have a sinking feeling. Your rear tire just went flat.
Life is full of little unplanned, unwanted side trips .
One of those is certainly a flat tire. In the Christian life we KNOW that all things work together for good, but it may be hard to see good in some circumstances. You might imagine how Paul's friends would have felt at his imprisonment. Paul wrote those words from prison. I am sure his side trip was not planned and not desired.
