I am not a nervous traveler. I enjoy flying and can’t wait for the feeling of being pushed into the seat at takeoff. It lulls me to sleep and, if it’s a short flight, I automatically awaken as soon as the plane starts its descent.
Later today, the flight I will depart on is a long one—a nonstop from Dallas to Santiago, Chile, where I will board another flight to go to Buenos Aires, Argentina, for the first leg of a three-week trip.
While traveling, my faith is put to the test since there are many more things out of my control than when I am at home: my schedule, my food, and even my safety.
The trips that I take serve as a reminder of how faithful God is to protect and care for me, no matter where I am.
During the next three weeks, while I travel, please join me in lifting the following requests to our Father:
- Safety and no complications in all of the travel logistics through three countries
- Health, especially for my gut and feasibility of finding the foods I need
- That God will speak through me to encourage and bless the women I come into contact with
- That God will bless the Redentor congregation hosting me in Buenos Aires, and the classes I will teach there
- That God will bless all those who will attend the national Bolivian camp in Cochabamba, and the women’s track I will teach
- That God will speak through me and rejoice with the Sisters Connected in Christ, in Santiago, Chile, for the conference
