I’ve been finding it hard to fully understand what’s going on.
I can spend hours reading and listening to the news, but it doesn’t matter.
It feels like my mind can’t fully comprehend the current state of the world, the current state of humanity. All it’s done is cause fear.
During our most trying times, we need to be the most centered the most aligned with God and our ability to overcome even the hardest moments.
While the world is losing its mind, make sure to maintain your humanity.

It can be difficult, no doubt, to cope with the crescendo of events. I live in Detroit, which is considered to be a hotspot. But, yesterday the local newspaper published a story that Ford Motor Co (HQed in my home ) will be producing 50,000 ventilators in 3 months. And I saw on Twitter a story of a 101 year old guy in Italy who recovered from COVID-19, just like he survived the Holocaust and the Spanish flu.

That’s part of the beauty of life. There is so much darkness in the world right now, but there are still so many amazing people trying to help fight this. Those 50,000 ventilators will safe thousands, if not millions. That 101yr gentleman deserves his own Netflix doc! Thank you for sharing, and I hope you and your family are staying healthy. π

Thank you for your thoughts and sharing the faith. With all the media and even much of the negativity out in the world, it can be overwhelming and we all do get lost from time to time. Although I would never wish such tragic events or a pandemic on anyone, perhaps it will give many of us time for pause and reflection and turn more fully to God for peace. 1 John 4: 16-18

Thank you for reading. Recently I’ve found myself praying more and more, praying in fear knowing that he’s listening and protecting us. I live in one of the hard-hit hubs, and learning of people I know passing because of this has really rattled my emotions. In times like this, we have nothing else to do but to stop and gain perspective. To stop and become one with God. π

Hi I totally understand your fear itβs a normal response and yes itβs important to lean into God. Iβve written a few pieces that speak into this time that might encourage you – if you want to have a look at some of the writing, Iβve only just started up and am new on here too. But am loving reading others work!! Just know there will be victory for us all on the other side of this suffering. X
