Title
And Now, We Wait
Description
This essay was written by Rabbi David Spinrad and sent to the Beth El Hebrew Congregation in Alexandria, Virginia. The essay reacts to the COVID-19 pandemic and the way it so drastically and rapidly changed our day-to-day lives. It focuses on Chesed, which "is the love born of our shared humanity that commands us to remember and act on this truth: We are all in this together. Chesed will carry us through." It reminds the members of the congregation to take care of themselves, and to use prayer as a way to give themselves over to the situation and rely on God and each other.
