This image made me smile. Today we are still hearing gloom and doom messages from everywhere. Coronavirus, riots, violence, sickness, and death.
Are you tired of all the uncertainty? Good news! God is in control. We can trust in Him.

Today, we can band together and lift our prayers to Heaven for God to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
We can stay home and watch our Pastor broadcast his sermon on the internet.
We can be together as a family and have a special time to rest and Honor God. (Isn’t that what we are supposed to do anyway?)
John 4:23 But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him.
“ When our biggest hopes and dreams don’t go as planned, there is an opportunity to get to the next level in our relationship with God.“
Psalm 73:28
But as for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, That I may tell of all Your works.
This was a paragraph in my devotional that I read this morning. What a perfect sentence for today. Many of the things we planned are now cancelled or postponed. SOS Events Annual Meeting, Weddings, Sporting Events and even Funerals have to wait.
This is a disappointment, however, it is a great opportunity to draw closer to God. A time to have more time with immediate family. Time to organize and plan for the future.
Look to the Lord for wisdom, guidance and hope for now and the days ahead. Let us all pray for this virus to be under control and that the spread of the disease be stopped.
