I also wrote this in Hartsfield International Airport on June 12 while waiting for my flight. Scroll down to see part 1.
Well...two updates back to back I guess...although this one will be much shorter than the first. Shortly, before I was set to board the plane, I was told that the plane would be delayed indefinitely due to mechanical error. Not exactly the news you want to hear before you step on to a plane. My first instinct when I heard this news was to panic. I've never had a flight delayed before, so I wasn't exactly sure how this was going to change my plans for the day. So as the news sunk in, I looked back down at my computer screen. Hadn't I just written the Lord was faithful and His plans good? Yes. So why I was I worried? The Lord had taken care of every detail of my trip. I could trust Him to get me the rest of the way.
It was amazing that what started as such an inconvenience turned into a blessing in disguise. All day I had been running around finishing last minute details that I hadn't really had a chance to just sit with the Lord. So I sat there praying for my flight, and the peace I had been lacking all day settled over me. Jesus had taken this "set back" in my plan to refocus me and remind me that I can't go at this alone. I need Him. Without Jesus, I'm a mess.
Oh, the Lord is good.
