       Recently I had a situation where I had to remain patient and utilize faith in order to see the problem through. I was in Florida this past January, and I was leaving to come back home here to Ohio on a Saturday. It just so happened that I was departing on the same day that Winter Storm Jonas in New England was reaping havoc. When I was on the airplane in Tampa, after the captain announced the delay, there was a guy next to me with his wife (I’m assuming) who got all worked up and started prophesying for himself negative things to come for this current flight and his connecting flight. I could have caved in to those around me and became upset myself, but I had to choose not to. And, it wasn’t easy. When I was in Atlanta waiting for my 5:30 flight, people kept coming up to the counter at the gate trying to get on my flight. There must have been 30 people on the waiting list. I had gotten on this flight because I had noticed Delta had canceled my Atlanta connecting flight and rescheduled me for Sunday morning. But I got on this Saturday afternoon flight because I had noticed the button to look for other flights, and selected one. God had drawn the change to my attention and allowed me to make the change for Saturday I believe because I kept my patience and faith.
