COVID-19 aka Corona Virus
PANDEMIC TIMES:
More far reaching than any random sick or PTO days there is today's Coronavirus (aka COVID-19). Declared a global pandemic by the Center of Disease Control, and the World Health Organization. This sobering bit of news put our lives on hold until further notice. In response to COVID-19 are closing of schools, stores, restaurants, sporting events, and churches. Except.. businesses deemed essential like 'liquor stores'? 
As of today, May 7, 2020 our Country is beginning to open up, but slowly. Here in Minnesota I believe we are to remain 'homebound' until May 18th when our Governor will reassess the state of our state. Until then social distancing, Purell, and face masks are encouraged. As Evening News reports there is a rise in disaster buying where grocery stores have a shortage of canned goods, cereal, and.. toilet paper. TOILET PAPER? note: if you are hoarding TP you most likely have a greater 'problem' (rogue IBS?) than catching COVID-19. 
But seriously.. the health risks of Coronavirus are not to be ignored especially by those who are high risk. My understanding high risk citizens are typically over 65 years old, or with compromised immune systems.
BUT.. just as serious I am also concerned with the over-zealous domino overreach of governments, schools, churches, etc etc. This will fuel far reaching economic and societal problems that may be more serious than the very real health risks. The longer this continues the greater damage is done. |

So I pray.. for God's protection, and His wisdom to be displayed in ALL our leaders at all levels, and that it is not reduced to a partisan issue instead of it being an American issue.
So I pray ALSO.. for a return to God as this is a time where we can be quiet (we are like on a government timeout). This is a time to pray, read God's word, and then.. pray some more.
Maybe.. LESS is MORE.

ETERNITY - there is dying, and there is DYING!
I have heard it said more than a few times..
I am concerned that our society and even the church is more focused on a possible pandemic than a pending panDAMNit. (Maybe a poor choice of puns, but you get my point.)
I have heard it said more than a few times..
- We listen intently to the CDC when it warns us there is a pandemic. We must take precautions to minimize COVID-19 from taking lives. BUT
- We don't listen intently when the Bibles warns us the wages of SIN is death. Wide is the road that leads to destruction, but narrow is the path to Heaven.
I am concerned that our society and even the church is more focused on a possible pandemic than a pending panDAMNit. (Maybe a poor choice of puns, but you get my point.)
May God bless and protect all of us during this time. May the His peace be realized in your lives through this pandemic and anything that comes our way. Let's live this life with a purpose.
