As the outcome is not what we had wished for, it only means the time was not in God's time. In Isaiah 40:4 it says "Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain. And the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all mankind together will see it. For the mouth of the LORD has spoken" As I read this scripture, It became evident to me that everything has to be level for it to be revealed. It sounds like you had some bumps along your way. In God's time that will become less. I know you are disappointed and I encourage you to rest, let your heart not be weary. When it is to be your time, it will prevail. You should be so proud that you made the qualifing rounds, I had to fight back tears when I heard that news. As I do now, realizing your disappointment. Give time for the mountains to become a plain. Do not be discouraged. You are a fountain that has changed my life by just keeping up with you and your life. I'm so happy for this opportunity for you. I can't even imagine a small percentage of the emotions you must feel. Know that God is with you always and people all over this big world love you and support you every step of your journey. May God bless you and keep you and your family safe. Peace by with you, Joy Walden Matt,

Light it up in Europe, I know you are in phenomenal shape and can possibly set some PR's. I am extremely proud of you, you are a champion. JJ Matt,
