So as you MAY have noticed, we're in the midst of the lovely Coronavirus issue. The world is, as I speak, reeling in fear and torments with this terrible judgment of God. Italy is on lockdown and can't leave their homes, and has been for weeks now. I feel so bad for them. China is bogged down, as well as is the rest of Europe. And don't you know, it's here in the UNTIED STATES of AmeriKa! In my state there's been over 100 cases!! In my city, 44, and counting!! They're telling us to go home and STAY HOME, which I think is impossible because people have to work, and many don't like to be told what to do! Ugh, it's a big mess!
I have the feeling (and I admit, this is my flesh) that this can go on for much longer. They SAY 2 weeks, but I don't know about that. The way it's been hyped and pushed and shoved down our throats, only 2 weeks would surprise me! People are scared, terrified, and many are in doubt because they see others going about their lives so they assume they won't get it (and I admit I'm there too). But I have my God to shield me from any catatrophe, and I say, THY WILL BE DONE, LORD. God is on His throne, and NOTHING takes Him by surprise.
If I end up with the coronavirus (more specifically, with COVID-19), then I must accept that as God's will. If I catch a tiny sniffle I'm not going to the emergency room (actually they want us to go directly to see our doctor, which seems strange because they're probably bogged down with cases). They keep telling us to DO THE 5:
- Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds
- Stay at least 3 feet away from others (the "social distancing" rule)
- Cough or sneeze into your elbow, not your hands
- Don't touch your face (without washing your hands)
- If you have symptoms, stay home (which is ludicrous because quarantining makes it worse; before they were pushing to go to the doctor immediately, hence what I said earlier)
- I might add another: DISINFECT YOUR HOME, DUH.
In the end, after all this is over, I really hope people will wise up and return to the God who gives them breath. Is this God's judgment on the world? I don't know that for sure, but I do know this: He is trying to get our attention! BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND BE SAVED!!
