"I didn't sign up for this", like many books, isn't meant to be a cure all or an answer for everything, but rather, it does what it successfully reaches to its intended audience, in which,"We are unique individuals, and what God is attempting to do in our detours will never be exactly the same from one person to another. Rather than a one-size-fits-all answer, the following principles are meant to function much as additional fuel to keep you going even if your unexpected journey is a lengthy one.".

Many of us have had times in our lives, when something comes up that doesn't come up as planned or scheduled, or maybe what we thought our lives were imagined to be; Maybe we have unexpected surprises that finds us having to re-adjust and change courses or keep strong and sail through while managing with whatever it is, which has come up.

Whatever is the case, "I Didn’t Sign Up for This!: Navigating Life’s Detours" by Aaron Sharp is a book about dealing, adapting and support through the changes that we can and also cannot expect in our lives.

From the look of the cover, it is a reminder, we will have moments of "wildernesses" in our lives, however minor or major and using an example of Elijah (though we may not find ourselves in such the same position as Elijah was), I like how, "I Didn’t Sign Up for This!: Navigating Life’s Detours" reminds us that, "Though we all have expectations, we must remember that we cannot write our expectations in stone. If we are honest with ourselves, we would have to agree with James’s point that we can do nothing on our own. The only reason we make it from one day to the next is because God has provided the breath and life for us. We must approach our expectations with the understanding that we have not been promised tomorrow." as we are poignantly reminded in Matthew 6:25-34.

Trouble is that for many of us who are planners, organizers, basically type A personalities who like to know what happens second by second, what the next hour will bring, and schedule to the "T" tomorrow, often life does have other plans and we have to learn to be able to readjust, to re-plan and often, to weather whatever it is that tomorrow (or even today) may bring, and with that, "I Didn’t Sign Up for This!: Navigating Life’s Detours" does that very thing.

We are all going to have times of wildernesses in our lives that will test our faith, our hope and our strength, and "I Didn’t Sign Up for This!: Navigating Life’s Detours" reminds us through scriptural and personal insight, that we are capable of doing that.

People will fail us.

Places will fail us.

Life will fail us, but God never will though it is easy to feel that.

So if you are looking for an inspiring, encouraging, and a you can get through this, book,"I Didn’t Sign Up for This!: Navigating Life’s Detours" is a wonderful read to help you go forward, not backward or stay in place....be inspired...be encouraged!
