Our travel started on Saturday at 12pm through last night at 9:30pm. During that time, I asked God to give me something to write about, something I could share about my travel experience. When leaving Nicaragua, we flew to El Salvador for a 2 hour layover for our connecting flight to Colombia. Once in Colombia, we took a bus to our next ministry. As we were on our bus ride to Medellin, Colombia to our next ministry these are the thoughts I jotted down in my notes app on my phone. These are the things God reminded me of as we were still traveling Sunday evening.

-I’m in the anxious prayers on your flight
-I’m in the distant lightning storm you see out your plane window
-I’m in the midst of you having fried Oreos and ice cream with some of your squad mates at an airport for a connecting flight
-I’m in the phone calls with your fam at 4 in the morning because you have access to wifi for a bit
-I’m in the hilarious conversations with your teammates at 5am in the airport when you’ve all been awake for WAY too long
-I’m in the excitement of finding your favorite coffee shop for the first time abroad
-I’m in the leadership team as they try to figure out why our shuttle is late to take us from the airport to the bus station
-I’m in the 15 minutes of sleep you were able to get waiting for the bus at the bus station in the country you’ve finally arrived at for your next month
-I’m in the 15 hour bus ride across the country to your next ministry location
-I’m in the in the trivia questions one of your squad mates made for you to play with your team as you go about your travel day
-I’m in all your thoughts as your travel
-I’m in the old man’s laughter a few seats behind you
-I’m in the little boy’s smile a few rows in front of you whose playing with the armrest and eating his snack
-I’m in the same bus ride when your bus breaks down and you have to wait on another one to come get you
-I’m in the moments when you have to choose the kind of attitude you want to have while traveling
-I’m in the fact that you GET to be doing this

He is in all things. In the big things and yes, even in the small things. In you and in others around you. I encourage you to ask God to reveal himself to you even amongst your daily routines, daily tasks, simple or hard conversations, in others, or the drive to wherever you are going. He is in it all. Sometimes we just have to be reminded to seek him in all things and let him reveal himself to us. I’d love to hear how God is revealing himself to you lately.
