Preaching Goes Viral

How I prayed when quarantine hit

Silver lining: Blessed, grateful, or upbeat about the pandemic

Even when concerned friends from back home have asked me if I was afraid to stay or was feeling trapped or alone, I’ve remained at peace. I know this is because in that breakthrough moment, I was completely willing to sacrifice what the five physical senses were telling me about the situation for what God, Truth, was telling me. And what Truth was telling me was that no disease, no outbreak, no dangerous location could ever separate me from God. I was in His loving arms, being protected and cared for. That’s when the fear dissolved. This wonderful feeling of peace has even helped my roommate, who was effortlessly able to give up his obsessive checking of the news and numbers. This brought a permanent lightness to our household.
