Monday Writing 3/9/20..."Scary World and Times"

Good Morning

The topic of today's writing is counting on the promises of God that says He will uphold people during crisis according to His promises. It shows that an intelligent way to do with challenges such as the CoronaVirus is preferable to reacting with panic which negatively affects rational choices' Here is a quote from this writing, "It is true that it maybe becoming a pandemic world wide...a topic worthy of our concern. However, if people allow it to terrify them into developing virtual paralysis, they loose their lives in a different way. Still there are scriptures that speak of God's promises to us and will help us to be more level headed."

Go your way wisely and rely on the promises of God.

Today's Devotional
"Scary World and Times"

(not funny to be really afraid)

Written by

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. 

I do not give to you as the world gives. 

Do not let your hearts be troubled and

DO NOT BE AFRAID." 

 John 14:27

One only needs to turn on the nightly news to hear about scary things that are going on in the world. There are hit and runs, gun fire that mortally wounds adults and children who were not even a part of the shootings; the list goes on and on. You could make your own lists of the terrible things that permeate society and wantonly break God's laws.

The greatest nightly scare that we listen to is the news about the CoronaVirus which is repeated ad nausea from first thing in the morning to when we go to bed. It is true that it maybe becoming a pandemic world wide...a topic worthy of our concern. However, if people allow it to terrify them into developing virtual paralysis, they loose their lives in a different way.

Still there are scriptures that speak of God's promises to us and will help us to be more level headed. Here are two...

"Heal me, O Lord,
and I will be healed; 

save me and I will be saved, 

for you are the one I praise." 

Jeremiah 17:14

"So do not fear,
for I am with you; 

do not be dismayed,
for I am your God. 

I will strengthen you and help you; 

I will uphold you with
my righteous right hand." 

Isaiah 41:10

From what I hear the best way of fighting the disease is to wash your hands for 20 seconds with soap and hot water. There are other methods that you can find out about by logging into the CDC (Center For Disease Control). I am not writing this for you to become careless or naive. Just be careful as you make your way around. You do not have to stockpile toilet paper, an over stock of hand sanitizer,  etc. Just practice sensible methods that will protect you, and believe in God's protection.

"And my God will meet 

all your needs according to the riches 

of his glory in Christ Jesus." 

Philippians 4:19
