My youth minister, Hailey, used to remind us of this added beatitude all the time, especially on mission trips. As much as I love schedules, I am fairly flexible. In fact, one of my strengths on the Strengths Finder assessment I took in college was adaptability (in addition to discipline).
But I’m still learning new things every day…
Currently, I am sitting in the airport in Charlotte while they get a new plane since there were some maintenance issues with the one we sat on for an hour. I can’t help but flash forward and see this happening at least once while on the World Race. I am learning to just smile, keep going, praise God for mechanics that find things wrong BEFORE take off, say a prayer for all of the grumpy people on my flight, and drink a lot of coffee tomorrow!!
Also, note to self: remember to always keep my glasses and phone charger with me instead of in my luggage which had to be checked last minute due to lack of space.
