Feeling like we have no control
Feeling like we have no control
This is a crazy time in this world, something none of us have ever seen before. It's like something straight out of a science fiction movie, we are all trying to wrap our heads around it as we keep thinking this can not be happening.
So many people I know are glued to their television or radios, they can't stop listening and worrying about what is to come. It's like when the hurricane is about to come here in South Florida. All we hear is how the cone of death is upon us, and we are all holding our breath for the moment it will come. This goes on for days on end and that's all we can focus on, but at least with a hurricane, it will finally come and then it's over, but this has no end in sight. We don't know the outcome, besides worrying about if and when we will get sick, we worry about if we will survive, we worry about if there is a cure, if we will unwittingly give it to family and friends. And now we are worried about being quarantined, and how we will be able to pay our bills without working? How long will this last and how will we be able to feed our families? These are all very real things in our minds and rightfully so.
These are very real concerns for everyone in this world right now and we have nothing to go by, nothing to show us that we will be okay because nothing like this has happened since the 1800's and looked how that turned out. So it's no wonder that people are panicking and freaking out, I get it.
I am human,and every once in a while it grips me too. I am a single mom with 2 girls, I am alone. How am I supposed to do this? I am scared about the future, the health and safety of my children, it can really over take you if you let it. The panic, the fear, it can keep you up at night. We feel like we have no control, and that scares us to death.
It is in times like this I need to step back, I need to breathe, I need to pray and know that I believe in a big God, a God that can do miracles.
I am reminded of Passover, when all the Jewish sons were being killed all over Egypt and yet if you were covered by the blood, if you believed, then you were safe. But even knowing that how could it feel when you sat in your home, hearing the screams of other parents as they watched their children being killed, you were scared, you were terrified but you had faith that you were going to be protected and you were.
This is what that feels like, like when pharaoh freed the slaves and then as they were getting away to freedom they turned after them and caught them at the Red Sea. They thought they were doomed but God gave Moses the power to open the sea and protect them.
This is what I must believe in times like this, how these people must have felt like yet they held onto their faith, even if that faith was only the size of a mustard seed, they held on.
And this is what we need to do, we need to spread the word, we need to know that no matter what, God is in control. We need to rise, and show others his goodness and kindness. We need to come together, work together and show the world what it means to have decent human compassion for others.
This is our time to shine, especially if we are Christian, we need to show the world unconditionally love and compassion. This is not a time for a me society, this is global, we are all in this together.
So today my friends, remember we are all in the same boat, we are all worried about our families, our jobs or businesses, we are worried about our health and our world, so we all must come together in this time of crisis and know we have no control over any of this, we only have control over what we do.
