The COVID-19 tactic is ‘social distancing.’ Are you reacting with faith and obedience or fear?
This is the scripture I read today in Psalm 34:4 “I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.”
And this verse of scripture has been on my heart for a few days Romans 13:1-2 “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2)Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.”
Today March 15, 2020 we chose to remain at home from the church building. I thank God for his knowledge to observe the “social distancing” are President, the CDC and health care community has advised.
I have been reading some goofy stuff on Facebook relating to the Covid-19 pandemic and it concerns me.
People who believe this is a hoax are not taking the fatalities and sickness to be serious and they are propagating lies. It’s not a hoax our President and his team wouldn’t make a request for the U.S. citizens to stay at home, close schools etc. if the situation wasn’t serious.
I’ve also heard political commentary on this as though their own opinion was fact founded and it’s not. Stop blaming the press for the virus maybe they did spread fear, but at the same time they didn’t make a virus.
I’ve also noticed jokes some hilarious particularly about the toilet paper stockpiling and some straightforward disturbing.
I’ve also noticed panic grip the minds of individuals to the point of not worried if they purchase everything and nobody else gets the supplies they require. Panic is fear and worry gripping the soul into extreme behaviors.
My spouse and I have been prepared, praying and then we will be using the wisdom of God to stay at home. Please understand that this is not a hoax, wash your hands and maintain some distance to ensure that you don’t become sick. And if your immune system is strong you don’t transmit the virus to others.
Schools are closed for a reason not a hoax. It is a novel virus which means that it’s a new virus, there is currently not a vaccine and they’re not sure what’s next.
So, let’s hear the Medical professionals such as the CDC, take into account COVID-19 task force and do what is necessary to help our communities through social distancing and not circulating the COVID-19 virus.
