The coronavirus is here so we can be reminded that our greed for money and the uses of technology working 24/7 will mean nothing if we don’t be still to know that God is Lord over us and our well being. Let’s not forget the planet. Look for example as the crisis in China had escalade and everything was shot down and the fog that was encompassating the whole of China because of the gases due to the business of working companies, now the fog has disappeared completely as everyone was quarantined and all work ceased. That’s like God saying the world needs to stop and shot down(need a Sabbath) if we care about our plant. The thirst for more and more money is never going to be quenched no matter what, we will not find the happiness we believe having lots of money brings. Not only would we be destroying our health, but also the planet. So turn off the phones computer and stop working 24/7 and take time to rest and pray. God doesn’t need anything from us, it truly about us and our well being.
It is Holy season, Lent. And so many of us wouldn’t and couldn’t take time off work to give unto God what is due. Now thanks to the Coronavirus everything is shot down, everything from vacations, nations, entertainments, travel, stock market, even to the Vatican Saint Peter’s square for this Holy season. Think of it “what a wow moment!” And everything that is taking place right now is like that of what happens when there’s a war. So are we shadowing what it would be like for a moment, if there were to be a war? Could it be that this is a warning from the Lord for all of humanity?
We are working 24/7, but the churches are not accessible 24/7. Man, our sins are beginning to get real heavy again. And like Moses when he had to get help from Aaron and Hur to keep his hand lifted up to gain the victory over the Amalekites, Exodus 17:8-16. So are the faithful right now to keep the battles and wars from escalating in our world.
