WHAT GOD IS TEACHING ME THROUGH COVID

 

 

The world is chaotic.                   Jesus is Peace.

Government is broken.               One day government will be on His shoulders.

Lies and distortions abound.      Jesus is Truth.

Fear is contagious.                     Faith in Jesus is also contagious.

World news is unsettling.            God’s Good News is reassuring.

The times are changing.             God is eternal.

Medical help may fail.                 Jesus heals souls eternally.

Focusing on events brings fear.  Focusing on God brings faith.

Jobs and money may fail.           Jehovah Jireh is my Provider.

Angry critics yammer.                 Praise invites God to inhabit us.

Complaining is easy.                   Counting blessings brings smiles.

Death and tears are common.    God wipes all tears away.

Unrest disturbs our spirits.          Music calms the soul.

Today is but one day.                  God plants eternity within us. 

Nothing makes sense.                We will understand it better by and by.       


Sunday before last there was an earthquake here.  Some felt it in the morning.  I slept through it.  That same evening a double rainbow appeared here.  I didn't miss that!  (See below prayer.) Both were solid reminders of the times in which we live and of God's promises and sovereignty.      

 


Right over our house here:

And our neighborhood:

                                                  His banner over me is love.
