The Browns' Adoption Journal - "God is in complete control of our tickets."

"God is in complete control of our tickets."
Flights and seats

May 10, 2006

This is Joy. Shannon and Tricia called from Chicago O'Hare a little while ago.

I got this in an email from Shannon this morning, sent at 3:38AM...
We're going to get to the airport in about 45 minutes.
God is in complete control of our tickets.

Here's an update as of 9:30AM...

Everything went very smoothly this morning. They got to the airport very early and were able to get seats together on the plane. They're now at Chicago waiting for their flight to China, which leaves a little after noon. Their seats are reserved together for that, too.

Thank you for praying about the flights and seats arrangements. Shannon and Tricia definitely will update the journal themselves as soon as possible.

So glad that you got to sit together! That's a blessing. I am praying for you and await eagerly our newest addition to the church. As I said in an earlier email, our family will be checking on yours and on Miss Joy. Have a great trip!

Blessings in the Name,

Pastor Shelburne

What a blessing from God! I prayed for you and your family today. I praise the Lord for your example of faith and dependence as you continue to venture into new situations and difficulties. Know confidently that I am bringing you before the throne!

In Christ,

Brandon

I am so excited to see how God has already worked in this trip. I knew he would provide you with a ticket, Shannon. That is how GREAT our God is! I hope you have a great time. Don't spoil Grace too much, now! :) Can't wait to see you guys and Grace when you get back. I will be praying for you.

Shannon and Trish, we should have known that God would show Himself strong! How prone I am to doubt. We're praying for you every step of the way. As I write you're crossing the Pacific, trying to sleep! Exciting! Will look forward to hearing from you. God is good. (God is God!)

From here on Mississippi Coast we were able to read and see that God is an awesome God not only here in what He has done but what He has done for our family in North Carolina as well. We are so excited to see our little Gracie, we are leaving in the morning. Dad's been packing for days, over and over the trailer has been repacked and things have been weighed (for gas mileage) he's gotten so good at it that he can look at something and say it weighs to much (just wait till he gets home and unpacks,boy is he in for a surprise!) Be safe, see you on the 24th...we love you all, can't wait to see you. Mom and Dad
