Sitting at Gatwick airport, 8 minutes and 19 seconds left on internet station. My iPhone has been giving me the whitescreen of death for two days… gotta get it fixed or replaced; nearly threw it in the Thames River yesterday… but at least it didn’t cause me to miss any meetings, had it all written down (luckily).

I covered a lot of miles in the City of London… so many stories. But, just glad to be getting home to Dar, Luke, Bree and Nate; I miss them terribly… especially sitting here staring at a thousand strangers and seeing so many kids I wish were mine.

So, with 4 minutes and 44 seconds left on my internet time, I’ll at least write this: It was not a coincidence that yesterday I spent an hour with the head of strategy of a large international company, who has only been at his new post for one month (as I have been CEO at my post for only a month). Not to mention he’s head of strategy for the same company as a guy who is former head of strategy of the same company, who was acting CEO of my company one year ago. Not to mention, that when we had coffee together, it was across the road from the Maltese Embassy on Piccadilly (a story I tell at the end of Clairvaux Manifesto). This stranger set up the coffee time and location… Well, until yesterday he was a stranger… until I told him about that very coffee shop and June 2007, and the former head of strategy of his own company who was once acting CEO of mine….

Then after our hour together, we prayed thoughtfully, strangers becoming friends over nations, international business strategy, prayer and work…. Yes, HIS kingdom coming more and more, one hour one meeting one flight one day one friend one family at a time!!!
