“Flexibility is a symptom of a person who is fully committed to God’s will”
It’s advance-party day 1 at the Women’s conference, and we’ve already encountered some hiccups.
At check-in at the Cruise Centre, we encountered problems with the Customs, with the ICA (Immigrations & Checkpoints Authority), with the check-in pple, our equipment were too big & too heavy etc.etc.
yet again, God broke through.. we had several kind & helpful people who were in authority that appeared when they needed to, to ‘clear’ the way for us. Glory to Him.
Meanwhile, we just heard news that one of key speaker, Judy Douglass is stranded in Honolulu. The plane had mechanical faults, and they hope to be able to catch the next flight out.. if not, it’ll be the next day before there’s any flight.
At check-in today, I was a bit ruffled at first, then it occurred to me that I didn’t need to worry one bit. Cos’ this is nothing compared to what God did in Mongolia. (We literally stared at our equipment from afar for 2 whole days and we could do absolutely nothing about getting through the thick red tape… then miraculously God intervened, and everything was released to us, and questions at all were asked.. and all this just in time for our concert the very next day!)
Staying flexible, learning that God is in charge, that none of these things surprised Him is the way to go! =)
