This morning is Easter, a time for me when I would be getting prepared either to teach or go to Sunday School. As normal I am up early and listening to my favorite Bible study. But today is not a normal Sunday, I have been at home (working) for 3 weeks now, not going into work. This is of course during the COVID 19 pandemic.
We the world and the country have been through a radical change. Sadly, we are in the very beginning and not towards the end. We have become so accustomed to a given way of life we are still in denial of how seriously this pandemic is going to effect us. I truly believe it will take a year or so to be back to full force.
The overwhelming question is will be is it over after the pandemic is over or just the first in a long line of viruses? I am not sure but I can bet this particular one is not going to be the only one in my lifetime.
Where is the hope in that? Well it is no hope in the world, my hope is in the belief in my soul that will be in Heaven for eternity. I believe that when born there is no end but eternal life, the question is where. My prayer for all of you will be Heaven and not Hell. We have eternal life in Heaven with our Lord and Savior Jesus.
We all hope for the best for this world but put your hope and faith in Jesus, that is the manner in which you gain the wonderful life here on earth and in Heaven.
I pray for each of you.
