7 Days and a miracle - 4 Days to go

Thursday – 4 Days to go

4 days until I need to leave for GYC and today has not been a great day. I received some unpleasant news this morning about the loss of a family member and the timing couldn’t have been worse. I won’t go into much detail to keep to the matter at hand and the sake of those affected…

In the midst of the sad news, I am still yet to book the flight ticket for the conference. I spent most of the day running errands in response to the news received and still trying to make sense of the occurrence. The decision to even still go to the conference is not easy.

Looking at the occurence, and the fact that some things still need to come together in a few short days before the conference, one may easily take these circumstances as indicators to abort the current plans. A major push to go, though, is the fact that some of the crucial things have already been booked and paid for. Some very kind individuals have already contributed a significant amount towards some of the major expenses, though I’m still far from making the whole amount. Deciding to not go to the conference at this point would mean a loss of what has been covered already, and I’m also not too happy with doing that in view of how God has led thus far.

With all that being said, I believe that if God wants me there, He will still make a way. If it’s His will, He needs to fit the bill; and I believe that He is able to do that...within the next 4 days.
