Here's the Scoop

Well...Just in case you haven't heard, here's the scoop. My Sunday morning flight got cancelled because of a freak wind/sandstorm that briefly struck the Dallas area on Saturday afternoon. After waiting in line for three hours, I was told that I wouldn't be able to fly out until Tuesday. Well...soon after that I got pickpocketed. My passport was lost making it kind of difficult to leave the country. So my Tuesday flight was postponed. Well, I lucked out and the thief tossed my passport. The police found it on the upper level of the Grand Hyatt Regency Hotel. I don't have enough money to go up there! So, now I'm waiting for my new flight to be scheduled. I imagine I'll fly out tomorrow or the next day. Anyway, my new adventure has started out a little rough, but James is helping me understand.
"Consider it pure joy whenever you face trials of many kinds, because the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." - James 1:2-4

It'll be awhile before I'm not lacking anything, but I've got the rest of this life to keep trying. I'll post again when I'm on the other side of the planet. I'm not gone yet and I already miss ya'll. Bye for now.
