Two Encouragements

This is a very different experience for me, living in a big city. To be honest, I'm rather nervous about it now that I'm here. However, there are a couple of things that encourage and reassure me. First is the fact that all my transportation today, whether on a plane or a bus or on foot, has worked out rather smoothly. I was able, with some help sometimes, to get to where I needed and wanted to go. Many more mishaps and mistakes could have happened, but they didn't. Second, when I called home, I was encouraged by the thought that this is my first day and that it will just take a little time for me to get used to my surroundings. I am grateful that everything turned out well on my first day living and working in a big city.
