When we arrive in Tokyo next Wednesday at 4:40 pm local time, that is early Wed. morning, 2:55 a.m. CST. We leave from Evansville, IN for Chicago, and then fly directly to Japan. It is about a 13 hour flight for us and the kids. They have a lot of fun activities to do on the plane. You can pray that we will have a good flight.
It was hard and disappointing for us to be delayed but we can already see how God has worked it out for our good. It has given us time to rest. We have all spent more time with family and friends, having many very good conversations. On the day we were supposed to leave, Lisa heard from a mom at Ian's preschool who asked if she could come to church with us as she is unsatisfied in her religious background. She has come two weeks in a row.
We have had more time to pray, prepare, and take care of all the million little things. We were even able to see minion little things - I am referring of course to the new movie, Despicable Me 2.
"My times are in your hands." - Psalm 31:15
