Airplane to PAP
We have met up with Art Wiens at the airport and are on our way in the plane. I've flown many times but have never had seats at the back of the plane. Now I understand why many don't want seats at the back, that's where the bathrooms are. If you want to see everyone who is on the plane, then by all means sit at the back, but my introverted self can't get away here. Guess I'd better just get used to it. After all it's just like all the other problems I was discussing yesterday, these are all "First world problems". We've been having a few conversations revolving around "trials" this morning. And as I write this Tim & Dan are discussing this same subject. We have been reading the book of James in preparation to this trip, and most of James ties directly to what we are discussing, real "trials". James 1:2-4 "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." So as I consider how trivial our "trials" are so far, I know eventually there may be things that are actually a challenge. So this is preparation for when this comes about. May God give us the grace, love & patience to deal with whatever comes our way.
