Once and a while we, angels get to peer into the hearts of humans. It may seem a pleasant experience but in reality often it proves painful. Today I watched one of my favorites prepare for vacation. Her schedule full almost till the final hours before departure, I wondered where the pleasure lies in such a trip.

So many details. And so many worries and frustrations getting ready to leave "home". Finally she took a moment to lie down and rest. As I studied her I saw her chest tight with anxiety, stomach churning and a heartbeat running faster than a horse at the Kentucky Derby.

If possible, I would have cried watching her live in her moments of fear. Does she not know how her Father in Heaven superintends her life? Is she unfamiliar with the quality of peace, which comes only from above? If He knows every hair on her head why would she worry about parking in Florence? Or driving in Rome?

Rest dear one and hold on to the hands that created you. View this trip as a blessing, a gift from the Provider.

Written to Caroline from a heavenly perspective.
