'We Don’t Know Who You Are!': Mysterious blessings.
On one of the trips, as I was leaving Nigeria, I sat down in the narrow seat assigned to me. I was weary, after weeks and weeks of heavy ministry. I weigh 300 pounds, (much of it is muscle!) I am over 6 feet tall, so the tiny and narrow airplane seats can be confining. As I sat down and tucked myself in, trying to make myself comfortable, the steward came to me, and asked me to follow, which I did, all the way up to business class seating. She said to me, "Sir, we do not know who you are, but it has come down to us from the very highest authority, that we are to treat you like a king, all the way home." And, so, they did.
On another trip, the seat assigned to me had been mistakenly assigned to someone else, so they reassigned me to another. When I go to that seat, it was also occupied, so, I simply waited. When the doors to the plane closed, the steward saw me standing, and I showed her my seat assignment slip, so, she asked me if I would be willing to sit in yet a third seat. Of course, I was willing. When the plane took off, I looked over to my left, and discovered that there were five seats vacant, so, I simply raised the arm rests, comfortably stretched out across the five seats and slept like a baby nearly all the way to my destination!!!
