Be flexible. Expect change.
Yesterday we received a phone call from our agency stating that we needed to arrive into Tianjin, China two days before planned. That all seems well and good until you have to change your airline tickets. This we found out would be an added cost of $2,000. Finding flights to China on late notice is costly. Late last night, Art made contact with United Airlines and got a sympathetic ear from a "live person" on the other end of the phone. After an hour of details shared and some flight changes, United decided to waive our $1,000 cancellation fees. This is a big answer to prayer. We still have to pay the upgrade fees to purchase flights at this late date but that was to be expected.
Please join us in praise and thanksgiving to God as we persevere to keep a positive focus on a potentially trying trip. Our positive blessing is that we will see Benjamin two days earlier than planned.
Our reading on Feb. 11 in JESUS CALLING yesterday said, " My Peace stands out in sharp contrast to your circumstances. I am training you to practice Peace that overpowers darkness. Collaborate with Me in this training."
