change of plans

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and my family was supposed to be coming to DC to celebrate here, but I just got a phone call from my dad and it looks like they aren't going to be able to make it here! Thank God for US Air...I was able to book a direct round trip leaving Wednesday evening and returning Saturday early afternoon.  I have to work at Ebenezers until 6:30pm on Wednesday and on Saturday at 3:30pm.  There was only one pairing of flights that worked around my work schedule and there were only a few seats left! God is good and I was able to book them! 

I was looking forward to showing my family around DC, but I really just want to be with them on Thanksgiving so this works out too! I guess they'll just have to come to DC another time so I can show them the city-girl that I am! :)

Thank God for the internet, thank God for planes, thank God for being able to book flights online, thank God for parents who love me and would be willing to drive 7 hours just to pick me up for Thanksgiving if I couldn't get a flight, thank God for His sovereignty, thank God for holding us in His hand, thank God for everything! No matter where I spend Thanksgiving, I'll be happy to just be in the presence of my family! Maybe I need to be in Rochester...there's a reason that everything happens and I'm taking this change of plans with my heart open to see what God has in store!
