DFW Airport built the station as part of its construction at Terminal A, the first of the legacy terminals to be renovated. According to DART President/Executive Director Gary Thomas, the partnership will allow DART to open the rail ex- pansion four months sooner than scheduled. DFW Newsflash “We could not have achieved this rail opening early and under budget without the incredible partnership with DFW Airport,” Thomas said. “Construction of the station and the Orange Line extension has been a true collaboration. “We think this connection is so convenient for the traveling public that we will see a high volume of folks wanting to get off of the airplanes, get on the train and go wherever they need to go, because A sign warns workmen and it takes them throughout North Texas. We expect others who might venture to see a pretty high number of folks traveling to and from DFW on the train as well.” near the DFW Airport Please see ORANGE LINE on Page 8 Station that trains are currently coming into and AIRPORT PERMIT NO. 239084 departing from the station for maintenance reasons. / Photo by John Starkey SERVING DFW AIRPORT AND THE SURROUNDING AREA FREE MEDICAL WE CARE ABOUT YOU & YOUR FAMILY Office Hours: Main Location: and Mon-Fri 8:00 AM–5:00 PM 2021 N.

Wait- ing on God is not only difficult; sometimes it seems impossible. We want things to happen in our own timing, according to our plans. But God doesn’t operate on our schedules, and expect- ing that He will is when BISHOP “DD” disappoint- HAYES ments come. God has a CHAPEL NEWS greater per- spective of life’s events, and His perspec- tive, plans, and schedules are perfect and holy, because He is perfect and holy. The Psalmist tells us “As for God, His way is perfect” (Psalm 18:30). If God’s ways are “perfect,” then we can trust that whatever He does—and whatever His timing—is also perfect. When we come to grasp that fact, waiting on God is not only made less that difficult, it actually becomes joyful. The promises of God are clear on this matter—if we wait upon the Lord, He will renew our strength (Isaiah 40:31). But we are human and we live in a culture that demands everything now or even yesterday. Sometimes, the prayers we lift up to the Lord of Hosts are answered immediately, and that encourages us to further trust and confidence. However, sometimes over a period of time, the Lord tests our faith, and that’s when we can really struggle. I will finish this discourse on waiting on God next week. Be blessed and take care.
