Toronto So Far...
Comfort is the theme of this trip so far. From woefully short layovers in big airports to bed bugs, it seems the emphasis of this trip is letting God have complete control. My anxiety stems from my inability to control my circumstances. I can't fly the plane faster, I can't stall the next one to wait for us, I can't move all the people from the plane in front of me so I can run to catch my connection, I can't remove the bugs from the bed in the sold out hotel, and I can't fathom how I can relate to this ultra liberal and multi-ethnic population. Yet, in all, we made our connection with time to spare, we navigated 2 trains and a bus trip flawlessly, we even were told the bugs weren't bed bugs (even though I'm still not sure) and were given an upgraded room with a bath tub! Altogether, God has been in control and I have failed to rest in Him. Meeting with Mike for lunch has been therapeutic. He is down to earth and has his inadequacies beat. He knows he cannot do what God is calling him to, but He rests in that God is able. Mike wants us to grow deeper in relation with the Father during our time here. I am already seeing my relationship deepen as I see my need to place my whole trust in Him (to not get bed bugs.)
