hmm...that's the question I felt like asking today...to EVERYONE I talked to!
Everytime I had to make a decision it hinged on another one, one in which I didn't have enough information to make. I spent 4 hours at the passport office and left with no passport, I called the airlines at least 20 times and was told the same thing EVERYWHERE..."no, no, no, no".
The only ones who were even friendly to me were the government office workers, though they still could do nothing to help. I also met some other fine people who were in the same predicament as I...the man sitting next to me was trying to go on a missions trip to Mexico... we had a nice time talking about the Lord which was one of the few bright spots of the day. I dont mean to complain... but it was a really long, hard day.
In the end I cancelled and refunded the tickets and cried for quite some time :/
We are still looking for tickets for sometime next week, but since I have no passport til Monday we may not be able to secure them before then...
This morning I kept thinking of Proverbs 3:5,6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding, in all of your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your path straight"...and then this afternoon I remembered in Isaiah "His ways are not our ways...". I do trust Him and I know He works all things to good, I have seen it too many times for me to recount.
I would ask you to pray for wisdom as to how to proceed... book a new flight next week? plan a trip later next year?
Please pray for renewed strength and for vision as to how these next to weeks should be spent.
Please pray for God to be glorified even in our shortcomings
Pray for our hearts to be encouraged as we are all sad that we can't be together right now.
Thank you friends
