I Timothy 6:15 (Phillips) tells us that God "is the blessed controller of all things, the King over all kings, and the Master of all masters." Today our team is trusting in this Truth after missing our flight to San Francisco and then facing obstacle after obstacle to get rebooked on flights departing tomorrow (7/21).

10 1/2 hours later, with many of those hours spent on the phone with ticketing agents, we finally have confirmation that everyone is re-ticked for a flight leaving tomorrow morning at 6am.

Why did we miss our flight? We arrived at the airport at 4:45am just as we had been instructed to do, and the ticket counter was packed! By the time we made it to the counter United could not get us onto the plane, nor could they get us on a flight to San Francisco today in time to catch our connection. All our prior plans and preperations did not matter today, all the prior calls we made with travel agents, airports, and airlines failed us this morning. Only our Lord remained faithful! From our limited point of view, we do not know if we were stopped by the hand of God or the efforts of our Great Foe. It was very evident that "unless the Lord builds the house, the laborers labor in vain."  

Please pray that everything will go smoothly as we try again tomorrow.  Please pray for clear communication and cooperation between United and Asiana Airlines.  Lord willing, we will be on our 6:00AM flight to San Francisco and connect on to Manila.
