I have 12 friends with COVID right now. It is exploding all over the world. Yesterday one of my friends told me that he was getting better and then he got ‘a second wave.’ One of my friends is on a ventilator, one is having struggles in the recovery period, loss of balance. We really do not know that much about COVID, we are a society that thinks we know it all. The after affects are truly not known, but as time goes on we are seeing some research. My heart breaks for what it is doing to children, growing up wearing a mask and not being able to go to school. My heart breaks for all those that have lost their businesses and all those that have lost their jobs. Most of all for those that have lost loved ones and for those cannot visit loved ones in the hospital or nursing home. Fore the first time as a Pastor I cannot visit folks in the hospital or nursing home, it breaks my heart.
I am a man that values every life, every life is precious to the Lord.
My heart breaks for our world. We must show much love and empathy in all cases. I have heard some very hurtful comments from people regarding those that are sick or die. This is a time for people that truly beleive in the Lord to show the love of the Lord.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another:
just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
By this all people will know that you are my disciples,
if you have love for one another.
–John 13:34-35
We are in constant prayer for all. Dear Lord, we lift to You our concern for people who are more likely than others to become severely ill from COVID–19 — the elderly and people with chronic health conditions. Protect them from harm and be their comfort in this time of uncertainty and, for many, preventive isolation from loved ones, in Jesus name we prayer, Amen! 20 Prayers to Pray During This Pandemic
