We have lived a long time: have seen many things, experienced many things, and learned many things We have had the pleasure of seeing our grown children themselves diligently raising a family. We have had the pleasure of reading the Bible together aloud every day for all our married life, so we know what’s in there We have benefited from the fellowship of many believers and non-believers Both of us have been close to death’s door yet have been granted more engagement with life. Neither of us were afraid at those times since we knew what lay on the other side, and that that place is better than this
So, Corona Virus, Shamona Virus! God’s plans for us on this side the door or the other are excellent plans. And they are the best possible plans Jer_29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end"
Yet the young among us (meaning those less that fifty years old) may have trouble thinking this way. I understand the anxiety of being absent from their friends and family. What will happen to them? It is sometimes hard to really trust that what God may do is for the best. How can hardship be for the best? Some questions and doubts will never be answered until we are walking with Jesus in heaven.
