Going back to Mobile

Posted by Dawn at Monday, March 28, 2005
Did not have to wake up early today as our bus leaves only at 1230pm. So, we only met up together at 10am. After checking out, we went to Peachtree Centre to grab our lunch to eat in the bus depot. I did not buy anything as I knew there was food in bus depot and wanted to try the food there.

We took the train to the greyhound bus station. We reached there about 11am. So had lots of time to have a gd brunch. So I ordered myself hot wings with fries, while CT had a fish burger with fries. They cook it on the spot, so it was nice and hot.

We started lining up to get into the bus at 12 noon. There was a long queue. Waiting time took very long. Even after we boarded the bus, we still had to wait a long time. The bus driver not as efficient as the one we had in Mobile. We took off one hour later-130pm. During the journey, I was listening to music in my MP3 player and reading my book. CT was asleep for a while. It was pouring and there was a tornado watch at Montgomery. We stopped two times. Though it was pouring, I was not afraid of anything as I knew God was watching over me.

God's wonderful creation was shown during the journey when I witnessed the setting of the sun. The whole sky was pinkish-purple and orange. Very beautiful. It was a nice dark orange light shone into the bus. Simply amazing.

We reached Mobile about 7pm. Went back to apartment for a nice, hot soupy maggi mee! haha.. It was nice as I have not had that for some time. Added luncheon meat and lettuce. Yummy.

During the Good Friday weekend, though I did not go to church, I was reminded of God's goodness, great love and His power throughout the trip- how He died on the cross, suffered humilation and betrayal for us. Though some people feel He has been defeated on the cross, I know that He led a victorious life for He did it for us , all according to His plan so that we can have eternal life. I pray that more people can come to know Christ and experience the kind of love I am experiencing from Him.
