March 2018

It’s 10:11 a.h. I’m in the Tom Bradley Terminal at the LAX one my way to New York. My flight starts boarding at 11:45.

I’m really groggy tired.

A guy came and sat closer to me than I am comfortable with but its cool.

No one hardly here.

Just saw a sigh that says “I am the real cross.” It’s a red cross ad. Oh jusThe guy wen awayt saw it says “I am the Red Cross.”

Last two days been whirlwind of grace and blessings.

I did show with Jacob yesterday had like six calls. One from someone I didn’t know. It was cool.

Riley, Andy, Karen, Lady from London, Dwaye called twice.

Ehab said he was so happy.

Jake said he’d like to host my program while I’m gone. I said sure go ahead.

If you love something let it go. It it comes back it was yours if it doesn’t it never was.

Brother Monir send me 2,000 – 500 for Pauline; 1,000 for lambs. 500 for me.

Went to breakfast with Paul he gave me 1,000

Parked my car in our space.

Jacob brought me here. I told him a lot of things. He had lots of questions.

Got message from Adel about Abed.

Will go from here to New York and on to Tel Aviv.

Mom called and as usual was very encouraging. She wanted me to greet Ahmed Shanara and Dad an Najat.

N. called today I didn’t answer.

I think they want to find out when I’m arriving. I want to have one day free so I can rest in Jerusalem

For one night before I go to DD.

Another  thing: Last night my bottom lip started throbbing or twitching I am not sure which. It’s the first time it’s happened. I had fallen asleep watching I think Judge Judy or a preacher from Riverside who was talking about the 8 walls of God’s keeping.

When I awoke my bottom lip seemed to be twitching. I wouldn’t really call it twitching. It felt more like it was throbbing but I’m not sure if that is right.

I looked it up on the internet and the two words I found were twitching and throbbing.  I don’t know which is right.

One lady wrote a post she is 41 years old and was scared that she was having  a stroke.

First time ever. One thing I read is it could be caffeine related or b1 vitamin. It said caffeine removes potassium or something.

The plane is boarding – I am in zone three. It’s now just for zone one and priority and military service members.

Was so blessed to get this ticket for less than $700.

I even got the insurance for $40.

Mom called as I was preparing to play at Beach Hut Deli last night. As always so wonderful.

Also on Sunday Aimen was preaching at Pastor Emil’s church and they called me to go. It was daylong conference. IT was great to see him. He is wonderful. I know him and his wife Hala from the confrerence with Tom and Teresa in Colorado years ago.

I went and saw the Carburys on Sunday night too. It was good they had some women gifts for their sister in Bethlahem. Was great to see them as always.

I bought flowers for Shad’s Mom and thanked her for her kindness and help in getting Shadi and me the apartment. There’s been some tension. Largely because of my discomfort with having her here. Father forgive me please.

A few days before I also had to have the sleep test. I went to the sleep center and was wired up. I failed to sleep but I think it might have worked anyway to see if I have sleep apnea.

Father, I am such a jerk sometimes. I have been a jerk here at the airport. I was seated between two people going to Tel Aviv ad they were really nice to me. Jewish. I could have been nicer. I wasn’t not nice but could have preached the Gospel.

I just had a large double chocolate cookie and my first cup of coffee -- $7 – yikes.

Last night I had fish and chips at Norms. Thank You Jesus for Norms.

Haz has a  vid about his movie.  And says coming soon.

Trump will be in Jerusalem when I am there like Obama was in Jerusalem when I was there last time.  I could board now. Maybe I will.

Let me melt in surrender to You Lord Jesus.

THE FAR LEFT LANE IS 3 WHICH IS WHAT I AM.

Im in New York now. I think we will be taking the same plane all the way to tel aviv. Maybe that’s why it was so inexpensive.

On the plane I watched Back to the Future and Simpsons and tanked. Sat by a Japanese lady who was quiet.

Our plane leaves 11:28 about 2 hours from now.

Lips were twitching on the plane too but funny because there was a piece of dark chocolate with the meal and on the website last night it said that dark chocolate was good for whateve conditions it was that led to this twitching throbbing

I think I’m feeling less guilty about going == as if it was too easy. But maybe it was God’s grace that eased everything for me.
