Unfortunately, we are all too familiar with COVID-19 — aren’t we? And it now appears that COVID may be on the rise again as the virus mutates.

THIS IS A GOOD TIME to review some Biblical truths, to re-center ourselves, to orientate our thinking, and to put this worldwide pandemic in its proper place according to a Biblical, Christian worldview.

If you are really having a hard time with fear and worry about Covid, then spend some time with the Word of God and in the promises, He makes to you through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. There is a difference between being …
• Cautious, but not fearful
• Careful, but not panicked
• Alert, but not rattled

COVID reminds us that nothing in this world is stable or reliable, everything is fleeting and changing. We live in a dangerous world. Someday, something will end our lives. Our only hope is in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God and the Savior of the world. He does not change, He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Because we have that hope, we don’t live in fear of death and dying; we live in peace glorifying God as we love Him and serve our neighbor.

As we live through this pandemic…
• May you live with an attitude of repentance, recognizing the Signs of the End and knowing that the Lord will soon return; and
• May you Lift up your eyes to the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth, your Father in Heaven, who promises to love you, care for you, and watch over every detail of your life. Amen!
