'You must know even when you cannot see.... You must rely on Me alone. Look to no other arm; look for no other help. Trust in the Spirit Forces of the Unseen, not in those you see. Trust and fear not.'
This is an entry from God Calling and it was a very apt one.
I was getting paranoid over my parents' safety as they went on their trip. I called 2 friends to confide my fears in but as I was doing so, a thought came to me. "Say the rosary, trust in God."
I knew that I could not trust humans but God. He's in control of every single thing and I cannot replace Him with my human friends. It is not fair to Him. I must trust that my parents are safe in His protection even when I don't know for sure yet. So I said an extra decade to ask for forgiveness for putting humans above Him.
True enough, my dad has been calling me daily since they left. There have been no hiccups so far. Thank God. He is with them. I should not have doubted and been scared.
They have gone to Vienna and Hungary and are now in Poland. They went to the Auschwitz camp where the Jews were exterminated during WWI. It is a place where there are still ghosts of the past lingering in terms of sadness and history. I think it will evoke negative emotions for visitors. They had to wake up at 5.30am to leave at 6.45am. Wow, that's so darn early! :S
