Christiane Völkel has posed the question of inner balance and greater serenity to herself and her readership. Perhaps her answer will also be helpful to the hiker / biker who pauses a little before this sacred wayside shrine: „... and by letting God have the freedom to let His will be done, not mine. What is needed for this is patience with myself and the courage to take a new first step: towards myself, my neighbor, and God. And to place my worries in God's hands and trust Him.“ May every cross erected along the roads and paths of places, in fields and forests, as well as on mountain peaks, be understood as a renewed invitation from God to entrust our human worries and needs to Him.
