On our way home

Last night we saw God move once again. This time it was at the airport in Cochabamba. Our airline AeroSur decided to push our flight from coch to Santa Cruz back a few hours and we would miss our flight from Santa Cruz to Miami. The Helping Hands missionary Jess was not satisfied with that and would not rest until we were placed on another airline. According to Jess what happened does not ever happen. God honored His daughter's determination by getting us to Santa Cruz.

Today has been interesting to say the least. If in fact is is today. We thought we were coming home around lunch time but God had different plans. Our plane experienced engine trouble during the push back in Santa Cruz and we sat on the plane for about 5 hours. After that we slept on the airport floor for about another 3 hours. The airline finally decided we could not leave until today at 5:30 pm. They gave us taxi, food, and hotel vouchers for the day. I have grown in my understanding of God's sovereignty. God's plan allowed part of our team to pray for and encourage our taxi driver to and from the hotel. God used us to encourage a brother but we realized we needed our brother to encourage us. Our team will be less rested for the difficulty in our travels but our souls will be more encouraged for the Divine appointment with Brother Luis Alberto, God's taxi driver.

We are now about to board our flight to Miami again. Man's plan is to get us to Miami at around midnight and Atlanta before lunch tomorrow. God may have something else in store and I would rather do that.
