Stuuuuck

Well, we are still in Atlanta guys. Our plane to Detroit was delayed so much that we would have missed our flight to London. We could have flown to Detroit, but sleeping in the Airport till Saturday night doesn’t sound like my idea of fun. I know it would be adventurous and there is the Henry Ford museum, but we have been really well taken care of by Sarah Hope’s brother. You can imagine that we were very disappointed at first, but Isaiah 43: 1-3 was resounding in my head as well as “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” (Rom 8:28). We awaited to see the true reason why our schedule was going to get a re-write.
Within and hour of getting the news that we weren’t flying to London we were at Sarah Hope’s brothers house eating subs and looking forward to our first 8 hours of sleep since summer. After only 4 hours of sleep last night (because of my excitement) the 8 hours has done wonders! I have re-worked the literary and we decided to splurge (50$) on a flight from London to Barcelona to save us some time. It’s likely that we will go to the High Museum of Art when Sarah wakes up (she’s getting her voice back and she needed the sleep even more than I). Though we have had to cut off some time from different places I think that overall this delay is for the best. Two nights to get real sleep and rejuvenate our bodies after an extreme exam schedule, a quite possibly better itinerary (we actually get to see Sarah’s cousins), and hot chocolate and warm cinnamon rolls (thank you Frank) this isn’t so bad after all. In fact, I know that God has worked this for good.
Thank you for all of your prayers and continued support. Hopefully the next time we blog it will be from Europe!
