About one hour ago, I started writing on my next post. A message of a friend in Germany reached me, asking about the condition in Indonesia and if I would be safe. This morning I already received a message from another friend asking if would be alright. Two more followed. Fyi, Sulawesi and Bandung, where I stay right now, are quite far away. So no reason to worry actually. It is safe here alhamdulillah. That´s what I told everyone. But then I started thinking: What does it mean actually? It is safe here. Don´t worry, I am not dying, I am safe?
But can we be sure about this? We never know what will happen the next day or just the next second. Our lives hang on a thin thread. If God wants to take it from us, we can´t do anything about it. Cause our lives, our souls, our hearts, our bodies, everything belongs to HIM. Why holding on so much onto something that is not ours anyway, that is only borrowed for a short amount of time. … More Head in the clouds
