Plane Ticket

This is the miracle of the plane ticket. I bought a ticket for May until August. I soon found out that the requirements of my major changed and I would need an extra month in South Africa to complete my GLT. I decided to extend my stay until November to give myself six months in country. As I attempted to change my ticket, I discovered that my ticket was "non-changeable" and "non-refundable". I began the process of negotiating with British Airways by emailing their customer support. I received an automated email telling em to call the United States office. I called; they told me to email. I emailed; they told me to call again. I called another time and the lady gave me an address to send a letter to explaining my situation. I did this and waited...and waited.... Over a month went by and I heard nothing. I kept praying and sent out my newsletter from my Mozambique trip asking for prayer for my ticket. The week after that newsletter was sent out, I received a call telling me that British Airways was willing to change my ticket for a small price. I found that God does not know the meaning of the word, "non-changeable"!
