"Journey. . ."

So once again I'm going back to the whole faithfulness of God thing.  I just cant seem to get off of it. . . Theres something about knowing that there is something HUGE out there. A huge God with an incredibly large, all encompassing, inescapable plan. . . and knowing that I'm a part of it!  You have no idea what role you play, but somehow there is an overwhelming sense of calm, knowing that wherever He leads, He'll be faithful to take care of you. Prefect example:
A couple days ago, Brandon and I took a bus up to Castle Towers (just one of the shopping centers outside Sydney) Getting there was no problem, we took one bus straight where we wanted to go.  However, getting home was a different story.  We were pretty sure that we were supposed to just jump on the same bus that we rode up on, and take that back home. But, as you can imagine, we wanted to just make extra sure. Hmmmm, who could we ask that would know. . . Ah hah! Another bus driver. So we found us a bus driver and asked him. Long story short, he said, Look just jump on with me and Ill get ya there, so jump on we did. And we rode all over the place, of course we had no idea where we were the whole time.  Eventually, we get to the T-way (a dedicated bus road in Australia) and he tells us to get off, and that another bus would come and take us the rest of the way.  Brandon and I, however, being the street-savy dudes that we are, decided to check the bus times (on the handy-dandy chart the bus service provided). Wonderful. . . the very helpful bus driver, had left us to wait for a bus that doesn't run on Saturday. . . it was Saturday!  Ya know God, I really appreciate the help in trying to immerse us in the culture and teach us patience and everything, but its hot out here, I have no idea where I am, I wanna get home and Im tired. . . so a little help would be good, ya know. (Now pause real quick. First I wasn't that sarcastic, but it was still kinda frustrating. And secondly, ever since I got here, I've been hearing things about how "God will do amazing things in your life and provide for you just when you need it". Even about how as soon as you say "amen", God would show up. So I kinda had all this goin on in the back of my head)
Well theres nothin for it, we better start walkin'. . . .once we know where we're going.  So we stop to ask directions. . .a totally logical thing to do in our situation. The first car we tried to flag down didnt even stop. The second car however, was a taxi van (Total AWESOMENESS!!) which did stop, but instead of  offering directions, he waves for us to get in!  Hmmmm. . . me being the suspicious foreigner that I am, and not knowing how their (very expensive) taxi service works, proceeded to assure the driver that we couldnt pay him, and that we just needed directions.  To which he replied that he was off duty and headed in our direction anyway, and just to hop in anyway.  WOW! Talk about a fast turn around time! This is just another example of how Gods faithfulness is amazing! I mean, not only did we get a ride home, but it was in a taxi that took us to our front door, instead of a bus stop 100 yards away! What an awesome God we serve, and what an amazing journey He's called us to. . .
