“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
~Joshua 1:9
The whole world is facing a major crisis. A virus that started in China and was announced in the news towards the end of December of 2019 known as the Coronavirus, has by today’s date (March 24, 2020) taken over the whole world. EVERYONE, one way or another has been affected by this virus, which has become a pandemic. And what’s worst, we don’t know how long this is going to last.
Because of this pandemic, people are dying everywhere. People have to be isolated and stay in quarantine in order to help stop this virus from spreading. People are losing their jobs. We are living a time of uncertainty. Yes, these are indeed difficult times, and we are all in this together. And because of that, I started asking myself some questions: How can I help shine a light in the middle of darkness? How can I help my fellow humans when I have to stay physically distant from them?
I thought about the Word of God, which is my companion and strength in the good times and the challenging times. The Word of God has been so powerful over my life. It has helped lift me up when I’ve felt most down. This is why I decided that for the days to come, I will share with you a verse from the Bible every single day for the rest of the year 2020. I will also include you in my daily prayers. I will pray for you to stay healthy and if you are not feeling well, I will pray for your health and prompt recovery. I will pray not just for our country but for our entire world. This is our planet people. We all live in it. And we can see that there are no real frontiers. There are no real borders. Everyone is feeling this.
Right below is the verse again. Meditate on it. And remember that you are not alone.
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
~Joshua 1:9
God Bless you & with love,
