stranded in a boat

To conclude our very hectic wedding preps trip in Cebu, the boat which we boarded on the way home to CDO got stranded somewhere near the vicinity of Bohol. While it was declared by the crew as engine trouble, Marlon & I couldn't help but fear. As there is an old belief that couples about to be wed are prone to accidents or dangers. We couldn't do anything about the situation so what we did is we prayed. We asked for Papa God's guidance & trusted that He will see us through. I guess I must have put my whole trust in Him as I just slept throughout the entire wait. (We waited for the engine to be fixed). At some point, we contemplated on boarding the boat Asia China & go back to Cebu & board another boat to CDO tonight, but decided against it when we saw how difficult it is to transfer from one boat to another without a gangplank. Our fear was pronounced when a baggage disappeared into the dark waters when a man almost fell. Scary! Nevertheless, it was quite an experience! We were still not convinced about the "pamahiin" but we were somewhat cautious. Maybe Papa God is trying to call our attention too. He may not want us to believe in superstitions but maybe He wants us to take necessary precautions. The entire experience made us believe in His power all the more. And believe that He gets us through anything & will still continue to do so in the coming days of our marriage. Now that thought puts a smile into our lips. We're getting more excited! ;-)
