Reminder: Trust in the Lord – God is (Still) in Control

It’s been a rough few days, hasn’t it? Well, amidst the corona-crazy (the virus itself, the reactions of people to it, the adjustments we’re all having to make as a result of various measures, and the way we’re newly finding ourselves interacting with each other), you still made it this far. The Lord has a plan for you. Maybe this presents an excellent opportunity for you to get to know Him a little better?

Hopefully you stopped in here for a little pick-me-up because that is precisely what I had in mind. There’s plenty of panicking elsewhere; here, we can strengthen our calm to carry it out into the world – whether or not you’re cooped up at home.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not rely on your own insight.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
and He will make straight your paths.
Be not wise in your own eyes;
fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.
It will be healing to your flesh
and refreshment to your bones.

Proverbs 3:5-8

And for those seeking a more contemporary quote…

This is just a temporary moment of time that we will overcome together as a nation and as a world.

Stay calm. Stay strong. Stay clean. Most importantly, know you are loved even in your darkest hour.
