So I still attend Crosspoint when I am in town and I listen to the Podcast when I am away. Just as I left town Pete had just started a series called Paralyzed which was to talk about Fear. You know from this past post that I am not excited about flying.
So...
4:00 AM Kick us off the bus in Toronto, ON.
5:00 AM Airport opens
6:00 AM Breakfast
7:00 AM Shuttle to the small planes terminal
8:00 AM Board the small plane
9:00 AM Delayed for connecting passengers & waiting to de ice
At some point we take off... We are in the air you can now use your ipod...I tune into the "Fear of the Unknown." drinks are served I have some OJ. Trash is picked up. Snacks are offered... just as Pete starts reading Matthew 6:25
do not worry about your life. I hear a loud ding. I pause my ipod. I learn that we will be landing in Toronto. It appears the pilot has become very sick and needs medical attention. I just laughed. Are you serious. We have a rough landing back into Toronto but we make it to the gate safe. We sit. The medic rush's in and tend to the pilot. The people are restless I say a prayer for the pilot and listen to people complain about how they aren't going to make the tee time, etc... and I sit and I Thank God for the fact that I'm on the ground safe. My Aunt Donna told me if you pray for patience he will teach you patience. I prayed for a safe smooth flight and I learned the message from the podcast. I think as soon as you realize that you have no control over your life... You start to live. I read forward in Matthew to 6:34."Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." LOL... yeah okay I get it now.
