On the ground in PNG

> Arrived without incident, despite having to get our bags, change
> enough money to purchase visas for the three of us, and make it
> through customs before boarding the plane in Port Moresby. We were
> met by our ride - and it wasn't until about halfway to the hospital
> that I discovered my wallet was missing.
> We'll check in with the airport in Mount Hagen tomorrow when it
> opens; if they don't have it then it's time to cancel credit cards
> and shut down my debit card and pray that that doesn't disable
> Angel's Citibank card as well, or we'll be up a short road when we
> get to Brisbane. Contents: driver's license, insurance cards,
> medical license, $150 total in mixed currencies, Citibank and debit
> cards. I still have my ATM card, at least, and some money, and
> Angel has all of his.

> We prayed over it - spontaneous, spur-of-the-moment sort of prayer,
> and the mission folks are coming together to step up to the bat.
> We'll be able to call the credit card company and the banks without
> difficulty - we may pick up a local pre-paid cell phone ourselves.
> And my heart is coiling with anxiety in me, but somehow I seem to
> have held it all together. And the Lord will provide, somehow. It
> will all work out.
>
> A blur of names and faces, melded by fatigue and unfamiliarity. And
> there will be time; it will work out. I will understand eventually.
