The prayer list for those impacted by Corona Virus grows. Yesterday, a young man asked for prayers for his grandfather, who had just been put on a vent. His wife is expecting, and they’re afraid for themselves and for the child.
A different young woman responded that her young, healthy aunt had tested positive earlier and now had hours to live. Her devastated family couldn’t say goodbye.
Hours later, the first young couple were notified that his grandfather had passed–and I received a note that one of our authors here is possibly infected.
So, bearing all this in mind, why is it so difficult for you to honor the “15 Days to Stop the Spread?”
Adjust. Be flexible. Be advised that these things do NOT always happen to someone else.
Be prayerful, be hopeful, be intellectually and emotionally honest. Exercise your common sense and do your part, praying hard that others do their part. For all our sakes. And remember:
So true, Vicki. I believe the reports we get about the number of people infected by state and county are doing everyone a huge disservice. People are still shopping in gangs at Walmart–whole families crowding the aisles because the reports say their area doesn’t have many infected patients. They don’t realize how few test kits we have, and that most people have this without ever being tested. Most who want to be tested are turned away unless they have certain symptoms. This is everywhere. We need to love others and stay away in case we might have silent symptoms.

So very true. I wish everyone would listen to the advice given. Many are not taking it seriously. Thanks for sharing this and spreading the word.

Amen, Vicki. The only outing I’ve had in almost 3 weeks is to get food, and even then I kept my distance, wiped down, washed up, and got myself back home. Our daughter is vulnerable and if we just do the very little being asked for us, the sooner we can do the things we enjoy.
