12 days of prayer: Day 12

Today we pray for Safe Travel.

We pray that the flight crews we encounter are well rested and in good moods. We pray they will work diligently and effectively in their tasks. We pray for the health & safety of all on board as well.

We pray that our flights will be on time and will not have any unforeseen/unexpected delays, problems, or anything else that could hinder us. We pray for good weather, weather than will not cause any complications.
We pray God will bless our time in Germany with the Koch family. May we be able to quickly and easily find them in the airport when we arrive. We pray we will have good weather and an enjoyable visit with them. We also pray for their ministry in Jena, Germany.

We pray for our passage through immigration and customs in both Germany and Ukraine. May God grant us favor, and may we quickly and easily pass through each control point.

Finally, we pray that our arrival in Ukraine will be smooth and uneventful, that we will find our way through the airport without issue, that our bags arrive safely, and that we quickly find our driver L and are soon on our way to our apartment in Kyiv. And we pray that we will have a good night's sleep and get acclimated to the time change quickly.

is like drinking cold water when you are tired
