Another time, I found myself in a small German town while waiting for an early morning train. I needed to find a place where I could spend the night.
I noticed a pharmacy with an electronic clock display outside. My smartphone was not working, so I could not check the time, and that display became a small point of reference for me.
Near the pharmacy, I saw an unlocked building, and at the entrance there was a comfortable sofa. I walked through the corridor, said “Hallo,” but no one answered. I left my bags nearby, lay down, and immediately fell asleep.
The next morning, I took the train to Berlin so I could make it to my appointment. My smartphone was still not working, and I had lost my glasses, so I could barely see.
Again, this seemed to me like the care of the Lord: even in a foreign town, without familiar things, with tiredness and inconvenience, I was provided with a safe place and a way to orient myself by the electronic clock display so I could continue my journey.
