"In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, so that theproof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.”1 Peter1:6-7
2020 has been an uncomfortable, confusing, unforgettable, challenging year. I guess if nothing else you learned to not take anything for granted even buying toilet paper at the grocery store. Will lessons you learned during this time of loss of much of our freedoms stick with you and will you work harder to insure freedom in the future?
Anxiety is easy. Nervous breakdowns as well. Family members have to be tolerant and patient with each other as this continues. Fear has been evident everywhere. Anger may be an emotion you deal with being shut off from friends and family.
Keep waking up each day giving thanks for your blessings and asking God to protect you and those you love. Nobody could have predicted 2020 was going to be like it has been.
PRAYER: I lift up those individuals having a really difficult time right now due to this hopefully temporary new way of life. Guard my heart so I don’t cave in to depression or a pity party. Help me do kind things from someone who may be alone at this time. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
