My plans were all made, reservations booked to leave for NEW YORK CITY at 6 a.m. yesterday (Tuesday).
Myself and my 19 and 14 year old daughters were to go together to be on a talk show and share our story on the Dr. Keith Ablow Show.
Off and on for a week we have spoken to the producers and plans were set, bags packed.
At 10 p.m. the phone rang, the senior producer explained to me that there was a scheduling conflict at the last minute. They would reschedule in a few days. Disappointed as I was I had to tell my almost 14 year old daughter that the trip would not happen the next day. As I wiped the tears from her eyes I said "Honey you never know why the trip was canceled, maybe God is saving us from harm, a plain crash or some kinda danger there.
Her birthday is next week and after our interviews on Tuesday we would have Wednesday to tour the city.
Our Hotel was near Rockerfeller center we would tape at the Warner Brothers Studio.
Our planes for to day was to explore ...
So when My daughter got in the car, she said MOM did you hear about the plane crash in New York city.
I logged on to the Port Arthur News to read the headlines.
Thankfulness filled my heart as I shared with the girls that God had really ordered our steps!
It also reminds me that sometime delays are not bad. In my life I want it all now!! In the times we live in it is fast fast fast.. I say when we get a delay or we have to wait... Let's just be still and know who is really in control of our lives and who orders our steps.
Just a reminder to hug those around you... don't sweat the small stuff ... delays are bad things they could be life or death.
Just some thoughts I wanted to share !
