i surrender again

i can imagine the Lord having a chuckle as he sees my subtle panic about flying alone. He knows I hate it, and i am scared as anything of going by myself on airplanes.Some may say "its only 3 hours to Nz" i say "thats 3 hours too long"

but its amazing how much God catches my attention in these times of flying solo.I hear everything as Im so much more alert than i am normally to what he says to me.In the air, I am all ears and for the first time NO MOUTH! it must be a ball for the Lord, coz he gets to do all the talking. The Lord reminds me again on how it feels to surrender all to him and to leave him in 110 % control.I feel so helpless on the plane, because there is absolutley nothing i can handle on the plane....apart from alcohol! My life is in his hands, my trust completely thrown at his feet as i rely and depend on him. Trust me...3 hours of that is an eternity for me, but thats how the Lord wants me to live everyday...like i am a child who cant fend for herself but rely on him for my every need.

I love how God speaks to me in the midst of my worst fear...he is truly my comforter!

"Lord keep me in your hands tomorrow when i fly out to nz...you are my protector and i hide myself in the shelter of your wings. I plead Psalm 91 all over that plane, and on Emma and Lipos plane tonight.No weapon forged against us shall prosper in the awesome and everlasting name of Jesus!!
