The rode to Denmark was rough, An eight hour bus ride, no food, no water. We realized about half way through that what we had done was not the most intelligent decision, It is funny how desperate you feel when you realize there is no way that you can possibly feed the pangs in your stomach. Thankfully
a man offered us a bun in which we shared together, rejoicing for the "manna from heaven" that saved the day. Seven in the evening we arrived in Copenhagen, grabbed a McDonald's $1 cheeseburger (which was a very humbling experience in itself because it was my first McDonald's burger in circa. ten years, surprisingly it tasted ah-mazing, I credit that to the fact that I had been hungry since 10:00 that morning.). After inhaling the burger we started to hitch hike to our friends apartment, 35 minutes outside of Copenhagen. Two car rides and two hours later we made it. I laugh at the randomness of the whole happening, but then rejoice at the way that God brought us together. All of us needed encouragement and to spend the evening talking, catching up, and laughing about the amount of m&m's we stuffed in our faces, was truly a blessing. We also got to sleep in an actual bed! Hallelujah! And in the morning we awoke to a delicious breakfast of freshly prepared rolls, bacon, and eggs! :) This day was off to a good start!! The sun was shining, the air was crisp, and we were on our way to Germany! :) Tune in tomorrow for Part Four of the faith walk experience!**For the record, my intention is to not sound extremely negative through the recap of our faith walk. I have learned so much and I would love to do it again and I am going to get to the part where I share how it changed me and grew my faith! I am just sharing the day by day in shorter snip its first! It is remarkable how much content you have to share after four days on the road. I truly feel more aware at the blessings God has given me because of this trip and I see now more than ever the faithfulness of God shining through in each and every situation!
