We are waiting to board our plane to Amsterdam!
Already we have been so blessed.
Our Northwest ticket agent, Elaine, was a patient of Dan's. He's done cataract surgery on both of her eyes! Needless to say, she loves Dan and was extremely helpful to us. We were able to upgrade four of our tickets to business class.
Another TSA agent was watching us and figured out what we were doing. She was so enthusiastic about our family. She is part of a Russian church that does a lot of missions and now has our blog to follow our trip and pray for us. As I was writing this she came up to me with bags full of candy and travel pillows for the kids!
She asked me if I was afraid to take all of my kids over there. My automatic reaction almost surprised me. "No, I trust God."
I'm sure we'll be stretched and unexpected things will happen, but I have no fear. What a blessing it is to be a child of God, to trust Him completely, and know that whatever happens we are in His hands.
Big thanks to my Mom and Dad who lugged us and all out bags up here this morning at 7:30 a.m.!
Hopefully we can post again from the Amsterdam airport in about twelve hours.
Update: Now we're all going business class. Love traveling with Dr. Dan...
Yay! That will be so nice! God is in the details, and will provide throughout your whole trip I'm sure...how fun it is serving a God who cares!
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessing (biz class)! I'm sure this is just the beginning of an amazing trip full of God's power.
